Hello FS Friends

So, I am fretting. John, the bane of my existence but also my dearest friend has had health issues. He developed pneumonia early November and still hasn't been able to shake it. His rays from when he had his heart attack 2 years ago showed a lesion on his lung that merited further investigation. I was aware of this as I see the xrays and radiologists reports online (I'm curious that way). His PCP said all was fine. I finally disclosed to him that I didn't like what I was reading and once again his PCP said all is fine. Well it isn't. I had him resign from his PCP and start seeing a doctor here as things are not right. I've known him since the mid 90's, lived with him for 8 years in the 2000's and we've remained a constant in each other's lives since our split in 2013. Even when factoring in the aging process, he isn't functioning at a level that is normal for him (high energy, strong like a bull). The new doctor has booked a CT scan for him which is to happen this coming Thursday. Yesterday I noticed a strange dark mole like thing on his chest as he was changing into his work gear. He says it has been there for about six months and is growing. Pretty sure he has an umbilical hernia as well, as there is a part of his abdomen that is slightly bulging which appeared with all the coughing he is doing. When it comes to health related issues I'm a glass half full person, likely because such has been my life with those nearest to me. I dread the news to come and am bracing myself. Added to it at this point he wouldn't pass the medical (cardiac stress test component) which means he will be unable to work and without income. Not sure how he will pay his mortgage and bills in the months to come as this go round I cannot subsidise his life as I did through the 6 months post heart attack. It put a dent in my discretionary funds which at this point I need to have my roof replaced.

One day at a time I suppose. Have to keep on track with my own health journey. Can't stop fretting though and so very tired of losing my ever shrinking circle of people.

Sorry to vent

Over and out
