Hi Doc,

Well, Hematologist has told me that she only wants to see me once a year... She says it is not very likely I will have multiple myeloma even though the blood tests say I have it...it is a false positive for reasons that lead to the spike protein used in the Covid MRNA vaccines, which are not still well understood.

Anyway, in this old age, I am glad to get up every morning even though that doesn't go Snap, Crackle or Pop, Leaks!

Best,
Phil
Great news, Phil!

Multiple Myeloma is often diagnosed with a lateral skull xray or cat scan

When I was in medical school, I was taught that a lateral skull x-ray would show multiple myeloma. I found this quote below.

“A lateral skull X-ray is used to diagnose multiple myeloma by visualizing characteristic "punched-out" lytic lesions, appearing as small, well-defined holes within the skull bone, which are a classic sign of the disease; this pattern is often described as a "raindrop" appearance on the lateral skull view when multiple lesions are present.”

Im glad you are doing better, life is full of these surprises luckily, you have a good hematologist. Blessings.
Hi Doc,

I had a full body X ray which showed my bones are in good shape. I was heartened by this.

Hope this yearly monitoring will produce positive results.

Happy Holidays to all forum members! Enough of my trials.... For the 5g Ranger members....my Ranger is still going strong! I love this truck...

Best,
Phil

Taken late in the afternoon on Boundary Road trials just south of Houghton MI. Got good snow so we got out there at dusk, after temps had dropped. Most of there photos were take live with my 13yo assistant operating the machine.

This feathered friend stopped by the backyard the other day…I quickly took this shot with my phone but by the time I got my DSLR out for a better shot, it had left.

My neighbour told me there are more than a few around that have produced chicks for the past three years and that there are Osprey just up-river and I’ll be sure to see them at some point. She said she often sees deer in our backyards.

We are in the middle of a small city - not rural, not even semi-rural but the river’s riparian zone is large and full of wildlife. I haven’t seen a racoon yet and my neighbours all put their black plastic garbage bags out on the street the night before pickup, without incident, so maybe I scored big with this new house and there aren’t any nearby. ? ? Maybe baldy up there keeps them away. ?

Got a bit better shot of my new neighbour this morning. I have a feeling I’ll be seeing a lot of him.

Next door Neighbor gave me this quality patio table and umbrella. A friend helped me lift the frame over the fence and we carried the glass top into my yard. Great addition to my patio.
