On the Medical Front
The last few weeks have been filled with medical news for me. I’ve met with my shoulder surgeon, connected with my GP and been introduced to a dermatologist. In addition, I bought a pair of hearing aids a couple years ago and have been wearing them more frequently. Old age creeps up My shoulder surgeon …
