I think part of his problem post surgery was that he either didn't understand or hear a plan from the Drs in Melbourne (they live in Mildura).
Then there's the good old not all that fussed about geriatrics (it happens).
He should have had a rehab plan and didn't get one.
Travel not an option.
Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell never married, but were together well over 40 years before he passed away.
Ann Bancroft and Mel Brooks
Kyra Sedgwick and Kevin Bacon
Henry Winkler has been married 40+ years
Tom Hanks and his wife Rita almost 40 years.
They are out there.
I noticed that the servo up the road from our village was selling 98RON for almost $2.30. Before the price hike it was under $1.90.
The gouge has begun.
This will feed into the Reserve deciding that inflation's too high, so must raise interest rates.
Dust off your bus passes, people!
Yes, there is always the possibility of unknown children.
Them wild oats often yield results!
All the military experts agree that sending boots on the ground into the middle east would be a disaster.
Australians absolutely must refuse to comply.
Rebellion is an obligation. #auspol
If you want to know what's happening in the Middle East, @aljazeera.com keeps the world updated.

Oh wow!
Elderly sky puppies! I never considered how old they could get.
Bless them all.
"The light on the hill never promised comfort. It promised obligation. It demanded clarity precisely when clarity carried risk. It assumed conflict and required courage. It asked governments to disturb settled arrangements when those arrangements entrenched injustice." #auspol
Seeing as they live overseas, they are a Not Our Problem (for now!).
Let me briefly distract you from rising fuel prices.
Electricity prices will rise too with the gas cartel now super-profiting from selling OUR gas in a disrupted Intl market. @albomp.bsky.social’s dud gas policy changes announced in December mean the cartel laughs as we suffer. #auspol
People attending a car race in Naarm are getting moist in their trousers because noisy military jets are flying low overhead, while people in other places are shitting in their trousers because noisy military jets are flying low overhead.
Fetishising war is sickening and bizarre.
I hope you can too.
My dad is quite fit and active (89 in June!). He had an industrial accident in his early 40s that resulted in spinal surgery. Recovered well.
2021 required surgery for 'blown discs' in lower spine that's now given him sciatica.
Still walking the dog everyday, but can't go as far.
Depends on where they were in the boat. Depends on rank. Depends on whether this was done in a shifty way.
They would have known that a precondition of participation in the exercises was no live ammo on board.
Unlikely we won't know because 'on water operational matters'.
I see what you mean though. 'George Russell, bespoke gentleman's outfitter' in gold letters on a glass shop front in Saville Row.
Keith is immortal.
About to become a great grandfather for the first time (which surprises me, because I thought this would have happened sooner!).
Yes it is, as it clearly targets civilian infrastructure.
The F1 driver?
The Vibe on the South Western Highway north of Coolup (WA) hiked 98RON from the high $1.80s to over $2.20.
I love it when the right teacher puts the right book in the hands of the right student.
Magic happens. 😎
They were very unlikely to have been in the know. I expect, and hope, that they were horrified.
So, he's managed to get part time work as maintenance at the school and the rest of the time is stay at home dad to their little girl.
Combined with the tropical climate, it's helped his spine, as they work through treatments. Last resort is surgery.
He's pretty active, but watches himself. 2/2
My son transitioned out of 'being on the tools' to the office as an estimator and supervisor. He then got accepted for Corrections as a guard. At the facility they discovered his background, so became a guard/handyman.
His wife is a child psychologist, and they got the chance to move to NT 1/2
I'm back at square 2 with my physio exercises for my shoulder.
Had a mammogram on Thursday. Contortion required (from my shoulder's POV) and I've been paying ever since.
So back we go several stages to get range of motion and pain under control.
Getting old sucks, but better than the alternative.
The most comfortable socks in the world in your photo. Love them! ♥
Last point you made : in bold, 80 point font.
Why they were faffing around between 2020 and 2024, I have no effing idea! They blew it.
It's a plan. And a good one. Almost 240 years of watching and listening, I reckon they've got some really good ideas.
Oh, agree 100%. Some of us are freeze rather than fight or flight.
But, if someone has a fall, and there's no blood guts and gore, most first aiders should be au fait with assisting. Even if it is just sitting with the patient until the professionals turn up.
