Hopefully starting a Luthiery degree next year…the only thing stopping me would be my Alzheimer’s jumping forward and taking my brain with it.

I REALLY want a degree before things get really spoiled.

@adamskis
Hopefully you'll be able to and your Alzheimer won't interfere.

I have to ask @Cher_Scope, how can you accidentally steal a chair

@Username_removed I've had some pretty nasty eye surgery too prob not as bad as yours but its the seeing those instruments and needles about to go in your eye 

I had my leg amputated while I was awake and watched the surgery through the reflection in the overhead light

Blimey Mike that sounds terrifying    Thank goodness you survived.

@Ami2301 Haha.. I blame my mother.  She asked me to collect a chair she'd reserved in a charity shop.  Cue the fatal breakdown in communication when I assumed it was a particular charity shop, without clarifying it first.  You can guess the rest, I wandered blasé into one shop and was adamant they'd sold my mum a chair, so they told me to take the only one they had - a random brown one in the corner    Then drove it to my mum's house to be met with a bemused face and her saying what's this?  I was mortified!! Life lesson fully learnt - never assume.  Cringe.

I hope it goes well, I find the anticipation is often far worse than the actuality, the whole local anaesthetic/being awake thing freaks me out every time.

positive vibes to you.

You are only human, of course you are scared, only a fool wouldn’t be, and you don’t strike me as one of those!

I have had three lifesaving operations in my life.
One brain surgery, some time ago. The last two in the past year.
I have flown first class and business class several times for free. (In laws work for Delta airline)
I was very nearly robbed at gunpoint in Rome. (Police intervened) Thank God.
