Who Is Old Doc Schissel?

      Sitting out on the porch with mom, dad, Carianne , my nephew Scott and my Aunt Billie, everyone shared stories to one another.
     Every once in a while a very special Doctors name comes up and how he solved a health problem with great success.
   Here recently, he has been referred to as "Old Doc Schissel".
   My question is why is why the usage of "Old"?
    I never thought of this wonderful man as that,especially when he is my cousin's age.
    I kinda looked at my Aunt with puzzlement, then looked away thinking to myself as my aunt went on with her story.
     In a way the term sounds like a show of respect, beloved and nostalgic in a legendary way.
     Old Doc Schissel is just a great man, I'm not sure if he sees himself that way, but many do.
    I know I do.

       Hey Schizz, you are still young in my eyes,you know, thinking about you
Love and prayers to everyone.

Love

Sally

Weather Spotter

        Hello Schizz   Hope you are having a good day hon, its cold here, snow flurries have fallen along with rain.  I know that's nothing compared with what you all have had to deal with a few weeks ago, so I won't complain.   Went to my weather spotter class last night.     It was a good turnout, I noticed quite a few families there. I couldn't get Carianne to go with me and Jon had to work, so I went alone.  Compared to the Weather Spotter SkyWarn class I went to back in 1993, it was 100% more informative and helpful and that in itself was great because it was good then.  I had some problems though because my hearing garbled so much of what the instructor said, I was trying to stay awake.  Luckily I could read and see enough to understand what they spoke of.  So much of my hearing is tone, so many tones I can't make out or hear in general.    Back in 1993, much of the information was on Tornadoes and strai...

Not A Complete Good Report..Feel Like Crying

     Boy do I have to make some drastic changes to my diet.  I really like my new Doctor at OhioHealth, she is very good and on the button.  The good news that I got today was my blood pressure was good, how I did that is beyond me, considering the holiday weight gain..oh yes, very distraught about that, I could kick myself a thousand times over.  My blood work came out good, that is a medical wonder.   Dr. Barnett put me on a "Dash" diet for hypertension and I am to use my exercise bike for ten minutes a day, low impact .  So I am spinning along with you Schizz , so glad I have my own, too self conscious to be in a group.   For the shortness of breath and winded, weight or stress of course, she is going to run a stress test on me..otherwise I am due for my mammogram and that darn colonoscopy...don't want that at all..you should hear the horror stories I hear about that, especially from dad, h loves to tell of mom's experience while laughing ...
