Maybe off line for a little while

To the folks that follow my blog and rants.  I will be off line for a few days.  Why you ask, because today I will be getting injections in my eyes to stopp some minor bleeding. The bleeding is caused by my diabetes.  The eye specialist told it isn't uncommon for a diabetic to have this problem.    As I grow older I'm suffering the effect of being exposed to Agent Orange in Vietnam.   Diabetes is one of the biggest problem Vietnam veterans.   WE the Vietnam vets are now in our twilight years.  Many of buddies have already passed out.    So far I been lucky..    Everyone take care.  Hopefully I will be back by the weekend.
