Suffer, Bitch!

From my physician, I received the tough news today that I am not progressive like I should with my treatment for Massive Deep Venous  Thrombosis, & will have at least another 10 days of twice daily injections & the possibility of being on the other meds for the foreseeable future. I will continue with blood draws every day for a while... a perfect situation for a fellow who is needle phobic.

I have been a dilettante Buddhist for more than 2 decades. One central tenet from the life of the Buddha:
"All life is suffering & suffering comes from desire."

 Here are just some of the reasons that I suffer:


I have not had a traveling vacation in 4 years, & really, who wants to fly these days? Me!
