So first I'd like to say congrats on your retirement! What a noble service you provided to countless people. I take my hat off to you. Second, your lovely wife is in my prayers and I wish you both blessings every day. And third, your hip! Oy! I am sorry. That's down the road for me too. But "they" say it's so much easier these days. To which I can only say, "Ha!".<br /><br />It sounds like you have a great attitude and your priorities are in the right place.

You obviously had a love for your work. However, as each door closes, another opens (or something like that, which I truly believe.) Go on a great holiday, enjoy the leisure as much as is possible, revel in your friends and family who love you.

I will pray the the medicine that your wife has been prescribed works wonders. Miracles Happen Eddie.Don't loose faith. Ever! Having seen the medical fraternity from close quarters, you must have witnessed miracles yourself. God is always good to nice people. I will pray for your wife and Janine I am sure God will listen to me. Don't worry Eddie. You have your wife have another 100 years together. And do take care of your own health too. I am sure your surgery will go well and you will be back to fighting fit soon! And so will your wife.
