From March of 2017 until now we have had some life-changing events. Mentally and emotionally we are better off from the experiences.

In March 2017 Mary fell in a hotel room in Portand and fractured (seriously) her left acetabulum (head of her arm bone). She had the metal and screws removed in February 2018 and had almost overnight pain relief.

Oct. 2017: The wildfires of CA (Tubbs) took all of our material possessions (cars, home, etc.).

In November of 2017 ) (during post fire confusion) I fell off of a rental home porch and fractured my left femur (leg bone - not hip). I almost bled to death and suffered from acute renal (kidney) failure. I had blood transfusions and a surgical repair with a screw.

Since then we have had several minor fractures, but have otherwise recovered remarkable. We are left elderly and disabled, but still mad as hell and fighting for you, your families, and Planet Earth until the end.

John McDougall, MD
