Well, I cheated death again today. Got a colonoscopy and and endoscopy - that was the safe part. It was my wife driving to and from that was scary. She had covid in 2020, and honestly I think it added about 15 to 20 years to her aging process. Sometimes she's OK, and others (like today) she staggers around like a drunk - serious balance and awareness issues. We went through a 30 MPH narrow two lane tunnel with a fairly sharp curve at the end - not bad but still an attention getter if you're doing 40. She had to have been doing 50, and I'm thinking all that stuff I drank and didn't eat for nothing. She said "the car just seemed to go off on it's own"; and I said "that's when you take your foot off the accelerator and use the brake." It's uphill to the tunnel and downhill in the tunnel - you have to compensate; as I said the situational awareness, just isn't there sometimes these days. Pre-covid, she was probably healthier than me; now I feel safer with me driving even after anesthesia.
On the positive side. Everything looked great except a little redness in the stomach possibly due to anemia. Not sure how that works, but I could have eaten a horse by the time we got home ... which included a stop at Sams. I sat in the car and wondered how it could take that long.
