TRUTH COMES OUT

"Is Robert moving back to Hawaii or entering a nursing home? Not that I care....I just hope if he's planning on doing himself in, that he doesn't make a mess at the house. Honestly, if I couldn't taste food, had health problems, couldn't hear, had  no friends and hadn't had any sex in a dozen years, I wouldn't have much of a reason to go on. Don't tell him I said that. His life is my worst nightmare."

Just had to share this email with you.  Knew when had the stroke that former 'friend' could not wait for my departure from his home.

Mind, the old geezer is very much alive and coping rather nicely with new situation in life.

In other emails, the old geezer being 'FAT' and liking his ciggies are two more reasons not to like the old geezer.  Fancy that...

All this from an ageing homosexual who is despersate to stop the clock from showing his own slide into 'old age'.  Guess if one has buckets of cash to spend on 'face work' and endless supply of cheap wine, others do not matter.

'I enjoy convalescence. It is the part that makes illness worth while'

'A man's illness is his private territory and , no matter how much he loves you and how close you are, you are an outsider.  You are healthy.'

Having said that, this old geezer is going to share a bit of the events that have caused health to go pear shaped of late.  A wee bit...

Seems there have been too many visits to doctor and too many pills to take of late for my taste.  Ear and leg problems have this old geezer 'out of sorts' and one is so tired of it.

"It is in moments of illness that we are compelled to recognize that we live not alone but are chained to a creature of a different kingdom, whole worlds apart, whom has no knowledge of us and by whom it is impossible to make ourselves understood: our body."

I am so ready to get back to normal.  However lovely me suite is, it is not a place I wish to spend all of my time in.  There is a world out there I very much enjoy being an active part of.

I am on the mend, it just is not going as well as one might wish.  Truth be told, the old geezer has pushed it rather hard and has to come to live with life changing on.  Be thankful for what one has left.

I am still in the process of learning about the cause of my hearing problems.  It is a rather interesting condition, but then the old geezer would get a unique condition...

I will end this post with a much favoured quote from Oscar Wilde;

'Either the wallpaper goes, or I go'...
