WTF is wrong with you?
And I mean that in the most sympathetic way.

Until I was about 64 I was in great overall shape until I got a tiny open wound, no big deal but it decided to tunnel inward toward my femur about 4-5" not good. Infections and the antibiotics they use can potentially kill you quick.... even with professional athletes
I've done very well all things considered but the rehab can be like boot camp.
Even still for 68 I'm in good shape....... several doctors are amazed for how bad it got.
........... Oh for example take a ruler and picture shoving it r-5" deep in your hip with some nasty bacteria aimed at a big bone. If the antibiotics do not work only surgery is next to cut it out or you're a dead duck.

1987 I was completely independent and retired after that until this stuff hit in 2015.
My wife worked until 2017 and officially retired in 2018.

Well 6/26' about day 76 and counting mid-June turned into late June or early July to finish up the infection treatment and the doctors are being cautious about letting me go.
I'm learning a whole lot more about modern wound care and medical protocols.......and Medicare and insurance procedures and billing. This is going to be a Whopper!

My brother was in ICU for over a month a couple of years ago, the bills were astronomical, however Medicare and Tricare for Life paid just about everything.

Oh well.........
Well I've never been to Spain
But I kinda like the music
Say the ladies are insane there
And they sure know how to use it
They don't abuse it
Never gonna loose it
I can't refuse itWell, I've never been to england
But I kind of like the Beatles
So I headed for Las Vegas
Only made it out to needles
Can you feel it
Must be weary
Oh so good... oh feel so goodWell I've never been to heaven
But I've been in Oklahoma
Well, they tell me I was born there
But I really don't remember
In Oklahoma or Arizona
What does it matter
What does it matterOne more time! Well I've never been to......
