Add one more piece of falling apart body. I had a scary incident a couple of weeks ago where I lost the strength in my right hand. It just happened again, and this time I had the presence of mind to pay close attention to what was happening. I looked up the symptoms and it looks like carpal tunnel syndrome.
Most of my mother's brothers and sisters, and my mother, have had to have surgery for it. I'm nowhere near that yet. But I'd better go get one of those snazzy fashion accessories, the wrist support.
My father was right. You do start falling apart at forty.
