This is a place I am at the moment, a friend/customer of 30 years plus and 6 years younger than me, he had a triple bypass some years ago then a stent but he always worked a full day, one of the finest people you could wish to meet, he can read people in an instant, put me right a few times with new meets, I tend to be too trusting but he indicated a few times not to trust this or that person, he was never wrong, recently he was diagnosed with lung cancer, had kemo and seemed to be doing well but late last year was told it was still growing, more kemo but not doing any good, still working till Feb but now not able, more recently now on Oxy and morphine, I call in and see him every day for at least half an hour, it is hard seeing a friend dying in front of you and nothing you can do, but my visits mean a lot and it shows, as it happens the emergency Oxy guy turned up while I was there, had I not been there it is no way his wife would have comprehended the equipment involved, initially even I did not till I asked the right questions, oxy bottles for outings, oxy machine for home use, (makes oxy from air, would like one of those) big oxy bottle in case machine fails and pipes gallor, so yes I will happily give up part of my day to visit it is very important to him and his family, Rick
