    Welcome back, Larry. I sure hope your stories have happy endings and don't start with "once upon a time".

    Default A truck to DIE for!!

    So.... Picture the “Car Guru Guy” on the commercial. That’s me! That’s how I get when I’m on the hunt for something! Whether it’s a camera lens, a set of salt and pepper shakers.... what ever it happens to be, I look, investigate and dig until I find what I’m looking for.

    With the advent of computers, the internet and unlimited talk and text, you can look for what you want virtually, anywhere in the world!

    So, there I am, looking for a “new to me” Ram 1500 pick up. I’ve got notes, numbers and contacts for and about this “Super Truck”!

    It had to have a number of options that I thought I “needed”,

    Hemi, 8 speed trans, 4X4, leather interior.... Then, I found it, 2013 black low milage, it had it all! I hustled off to the credit union to get financing.

    all went well had the check in hand and off I went... to Spearfish South Dakota! About 40 miles west of Sturgis! Now remember, I live in East China Mi. 50-ish miles North of Detroit Mi. That’s 1287 miles... one way!

    My wife had a Chevy Equinox AWD lease that she was going to be turning in so I took that out to Spearfish and rented a car dolly to tow the Chevy home!

    Although, I drove through the worst snowstorm that I could remember, everything went well and I arrived home with not a scratch on me or my new truck.

    Mind you, I drove almost non-stop in both directions, wanting to take as little time as necessary to complete my journey.

    Well, you need a cap for your truck, right?

    So again looking across the country for the right type of cap that I “needed” for my truck.

    There it was, in Baltimore Md!!!

    So off I went to Baltimore non-stop again! It was even the exact color as my new truck! What a FIND!!

    Fast forward a week or so, now about the end of April. My wife works from home so we see each other a lot! I love it, she tolerates me!

    We would talk about whatever, I would get winded, couldn't keep up with what I wanted to say, OUT OF BREATH! I was a paramedic and my wife is a cardiology nurse (40 years strong)! I said, there’s something wrong with me.

    We called my cardiologist, whom my wife has known as long as she’s been a nurse. He said to report to the local E.R. And get a C.T. Of my lungs.

    Ok, got it! Results come in quickly! Do not pass go, go by ambulance directly to St. John, Main in downtown Detroit, the “mother hospital” to our small hospital here in my town. It seems that I have a batch of pulmonary embolisms in all lobes of my lungs!

    I went through the E.R. I worked at before I became a firefighter in 1993!

    Up I went to the coronary care unit for the night. The “fix” for the P.E.’s is called a clot buster regiment. 22 hrs.flat on my back, with a catheter in my groin, up through my heart and into my lungs! It drips in the medication into the lungs for that period of time.

    Doc told me I was about twelve hours from buying the farm!

    Everything came out fine, I AM on a number of meds that I wasn’t on the week before, but, how did it happen?

    The answer was too much sitting, not enough stretching, all the things they tell you while on a long flight!

    Well today, almost a year later, I’m still on top of the sod, trying to take a little better care of myself than before. Walking about 3.6 miles in an hour three times a week, looking real close at the ingredients label on the back of the package of food, and planning my next trip! This one will be with my nurse at my side, coaxing and telling me when to pull over and let her drive!

    How great is it to have a nurse at your side for almost fourty years!!

    AND a GREAT Truck!

    Default Once upon a time.....

    LadyonaMission,

    We had a saying in the Navy:The ONLY difference between a sea story and a fairytale is: A fairy tale starts out with “once upon a time”

    And a sea story starts out with”Now this is no SH#T “!!!!
