Moved around a lot since 75.  Parents married in 73.  2yrs I was here.  Mom said we moved 8-11 times between:  Chippewa Falls
Rhinelander(3wks)
Antigo(1yr)
Menomonie(80-94, 95-99, 01-10, 13-present)
Elk Lake(99-00)
Fountain City(10-11)
New Richmond(11-13).  Lost my Dad to Parkinson's Disease in 98, Uncle's to:  Diabetes & Cancer and simply old age, a cousin to domestic violence at just 23(RIP K8206-she was a teacher & a lifeguard).  Mom went thru a lot after Dad after she remarried & someone keyed her car & put screws/nails in tires & no witnesses or arrests.  

Lost childhood neighbor MFD/USMC father of a childhood babysitter from 2 house's up from 1121 just before Christmas to COVID, 1 coworker is still going thru difficulties from being on ventilation & 3 relative's were quarantined.

Been dealing with lower leg wounds since 11 & many surgeries later.  I was in wound care every Wednesday for 2yrs in New Richmond before moving back to Menomonie.  I almost lost my left leg.  Knee to foot due to an infection.  As of 16 no longer enthusiastic about going downhill skiing after all of this pain not only in my lower legs & my wallet.  I almost lost both feet last year when they didn't want to heal.  I was on disability for 1yr 6mo from March 2018-March 2019 only back for 2-3mo then off for 6mo only to return in 2020 for 3wks then get laid off until June.  I changed departments so I could learn reach truck operations & 1mo later I was on injured list.  Now 7mo later I'm on injured list again.

I have no plans on giving up this fight to keep both feet & legs.  Just listening to CDC, doc/nurse orders, & Pandora.

DON'T GIVE UP!
