I am a 62 year old male, I have started to get payment from the government for explsure to agent orange. They gave me very little but have raised it a good amount and I expect an even biigger amount with the recent VA announcements.
When I turned 52, I began having a new major illness each year.
Year one saw triple bypass and oxygen 24/7 for the last 10 years. This was followed by a paralyzed l. diaphragm, emphysema, a pacemaker, colon cancer, high blood pressure, diabetes, kidney stones,an abdominal aortic aneurysm, heart stent, congestave heart failure, kidney disease, ankles so sore I was not able to stand up ( I think this started from pushups on my toes)numbness in my feet.
I believe they are all related to my service to our country.
I did not expect to spend my retirement as a sicky.
I work out. I am very limited. Every movement is needed to get max benefits. I cannot walk or run for fitness. I find that Isometrics are the perfect item for me. They help my breathing muscles.
I exercise so that each day I can dress myself, bathe myself, drive a car, walk around the home, and all these things with a little dignity. The better shape I am in, means less often I have to ask my wife to carry items. My heart is very severly diseased. The diabetes has really stuck there.
I want your course so I can have the best information available to me, to just be a dignified old man. I cannot afford the cost of this book at this time. Not that I am poor. It does not fit into my budget at this price. I can afford less. So I hope I am considered as a winning entrant for the free book.
Thanks for reading this. I got carried away writing.
