Well, 2024 came and went and I didn't write a summary! Been just too busy. You have to forgive me, it was just the second year of our honeymoon. And I got the second knee replacement.
I started cleaning out my car collection. At the beginning of the year I had 12 cars. Down from an historical peak of 32 cars. I started giving them away to friends just to make space in the garage. By the end of 2024 I was down to just 9 cars. I am going to start collecting smaller things like pennies or diamonds. They are just easier to store.
This is the year I got my second knee replaced. It was painful and if I had remembered how painful the first one was I probably have voted "NO!" but we don't remember unpleasant things so I said "YES". I am glad I did because I am now fully mobile and recovering 40 years of age. I highly recommend knee replacement. It hurts but you will forget in time. And, it will take 40 years off your life! I wish I had done it 15 years ago! Only downside was that in December when Misale went back to Africa, I was not yet healed enough to make the trip with her so she went alone. She brought me back a beautiful walking cane with the handle made with the tusk of an African Wart Hog. Maybe next year I will make the trip to her ancestral home in Namibia before politics makes it impossible.
This was the year I solved the TGN problem. If you know what it is I don't have to explain it, if you don't, I hope you never know. But for those of you that may be suffering from it and are tired of having the doctor tell you the cure is vicious drugs or brain surgery (I am sorry, it IS brain surgery any time you have to drill a hole in your skull) I found my cure. It worked for me but your mileage may vary.
It seems that the French are way ahead of us on this problem. They treat it with DMSO. It reduced mine from a severe attack every 5-6 weeks to one, much milder attack, once a year.
