    Please have it your way though, if you insist, return to that darkness!

    Why Yadirf, thank you soooo much for your permission! But you fail to understand that I long ago gave up needing a man to tell me what I can and cannot believe.

    As for you, in the words of Jack Nicholson..."go peddle crazy somewhere else"

    The Bible is remarkably reticent about it's most fundamental teaching.

    Hey Lew,
    High blood pressure can indeed be genetic. It doesn't have to have anything to do with high cholesterol or heart health either. I have Mexican friends who have very high blood pressure and are in excellent health. Their doctor told them not to worry about it.

    Most people get accelerated readings at the doctor's office.

    Thank you one and all for the well wishes. Reality and realization can come as quite a shock, but the shock fades and life becomes even more enjoyable. No ridiculous WT rules and regulations to make us feel like we will have something that just isn't there. All my uncles lived until their later 70s and 80's and the doctor agreed that my Dad probably died due to his heavy smoking and drinking throughout his life.

    I consider myself very fortunate, though. I have two lovely daughters and two great grandsons so far and two really good son-in-laws. I have a steady job and even received a pay raise and compliments from the Boss today. At least my job keeps me exercised and in pretty good shape. So, I feel I'm much better off than many I have met. From here, life can only get better.

    LB, I had no problem keeping my head down, as much as I could from the air. My biggest problem was whenever anyone yelled GET DOWN, I jumped up and started dancing

    Dakota,

    Having dealt with similar issues in my family, I can only advise not to take a single test too seriously. We've seen plenty of false alarms over here. In any event, it couldn't hurt to eat right and exercise regularly. Take care of yourself!
