    Yes I do. I'm still alive. I'd apologise to those who hate me, but screw them. The best revenge is living well, as they say!
    So, my kidneys failed about 4 and a half years ago and because I had to go on daily dialysis to stay alive, my heart developed a problem and I had to have my aortic valve replaced. I chose a metal valve, because I like the idea of being a cyborg.

    I also have a pacemaker in my chest-and a catheter permanently inserted into my belly for Peritoneal Dialysis. (If you don't know what that is and you want to know; Google it.) My kidneys failed because of a blood transfusion I had in 1951 to save me from pernicious anemia. Some of the blood they gave me had the Hepatitis C virus in it. It hid in my body for about 50 years, before knocking me down! The Canadian government doesn't recognise Hepatitis C as being valid in Canada before the mid-seventies, so I have no legal recourse of action in that direction. :(

    So, what have I been doing since my health took a nose-dive? I've been doing my best to stay alive, for one thing. I had to give up teaching tai chi and qigong. And my musical carreer has pretty much been put on hold too. At least until I can get a kidney transplant. Which looks quite possible, now, that I have my heart issues resolved, more or less. :)

    I have been making YouTube videos of my original music. I have recently re-discovered the Ukulele, too, and am currently playing that instrument as much as I can.

    Also, I have purchased and am playing the 'Hapi' drum now. ('Hand Activated Percussion Instrument') which has been around for two years and is a new innovation in the Art of drumming. It takes drumming to a new, melodic level and is really awesome!

    I have been asked to provide a couple of tracks for an online CD project that is being presented to celebrate the 2nd year birthday of the Hapi drum. (See 'ReverbNation.com' a site in the U.K. run by musicians for musicians to distribute and sell their music online. Pretty cool!

    Anyway, tomorrow, February 25th is my birthday. I'll be 61 years old/young! :) I NEVER thought I'd make it this far, but thanks to the medical marvels available today, and some really great people, I am here, I am alive, and I am really happy!

    Thanks to Hip Forums for wishing me a happy birthday, too! I know it's probably an automatically-generated email program, but I don't care. I am grateful anyway!

    I hope some of you enjoy my music!

    Love, Light and Laughs to ALL!

    Stay Happy! Life is too short and precious to live any other way!

    LOVE

    oh, and in case anyone really cares, if you call yourself 'Hip' - you really aren't hip at all.

    It's like calling yourself 'cool.' Only a fool would call themselves 'cool' and
    expect to be thought of as anything but a Tool. ;)

    Love on, do what you will and judge no one!

    LOVE

    ~LL~

    NOW I remember why I don't bother with this place.

    There's so many members, SO MANY users, and you can post until you're blue in the face
    and nobody really cares about anything but themselves, so you'll wait until Jesus comes back before you'll get any kind of response from people here.
    (And as anyone with half a brain knows, Jesus was a mythological character and will defintely NOT be 'coming back.' Me neither..)

    So, I'll be off now. If I'm alive on my next birthday I might come back, then, just to see how selfish you punks are, still.

    Hippies? Not ONE here. Not anymore, cuz I'M leavin'!

    buh-BYE!

    :)

    So, you're saying that you're not hip?

    Really, Wayne, it just seems a little narcissistic to pop in to a group that you self-admittedly haven't visited in a long time, tell us all about yourself, and then leave in a huff the next day, because no one responded.

    But, as you say: "Do what you will and judge no one."
