Hijack This Thread
I'm going to talk to my doctor Friday. Apparently I may have some allergies which cause issues with my esophagus. I mentioned that to my sister and then said "Oh no! What if I'm allergic to chocolate?" My sister's reply "Find a new doctor!" Could it be Eosinophilic Esophagitis? BTDT.

Great Obituaries
The original was a wall of text, so I inserted some breaks. Dorothy G. Dodds Dorothy means Gift of God, but there may have been some confusion about the gift when Dorothy was born. Her parents were praying for a boy. She was their fourth girl. Dorothy grew up to be an inspiring, naughty, and wise ...

It sucks growing old
Had a chest CT last week and my bonus prize it getting a heart cath next week. Boo. And referrals to the pulmonologist and GI folks. No wonder old people talk about their health/doctors. It's our new main activity. I make it a point not to, or very little except when it makes sense. I have a friend ...

Remember, (John) Milton wrote “Paradise Lost.”

Bill_G, retired, affluence of effluent, and errata
I've read somewhere around 17% of the population has the anti-cilantro gene. Which surprised me when there are dishes across the spectrum in restaurants which use cilantro as an ingredient.

Happy Birthday, Whatever4!
Huh? My birthday is in May. But I’ll take all of the cakes!
Edit: Ah, I see. My birthday is 5/10, not 10/5. Unless you are in another country, in which case it’s 10/5 and not 5/10.
