Re: The end of my playing days.
Sorry to hear that, Ivan. All the best in dealing with your illness.
Just to put cancer in perspective, a scientist said on the radio recently that there are many environmental factors involved, but that cave dwellers and even dinosaurs had cancer, so it's not all things we've done to ourself as individuals or societies. Cancer happens.
Robert Johnson's mother, describing blues musicians:
"I never did have no trouble with him until he got big enough to be round with bigger boys and off from home. Then he used to follow all these harp blowers, mandoleen (sic) and guitar players."
