Additional Information
What are you doing now:
2011-2012 - Had cancer surgery on right side of face. Surgeon had to remove half of my face from the center of my nose over to my right cheekbone. Reconstruction surgery was masterful. Praise God
May 18th 2011 - Day before my birthday went to prison for my one and only DUI, I hit another car, but no injuries. Spent 18 months in prison. Came back to the women I met online before going to prison, who actually lived only 2 blocks from me while we went to grade and high school without meeting each other. Thank you God for sending her to me. She has stood by me through thick and thin. I have neuropathy in my extremities which means I can't stand for more than 10-15 minutes, so I'm in a wheelchair mostly. I've broken my tibia, femur, and hip. Different legs thank goodness. Whenever I had to stay in the hospital my Kathi stayed with me 24/7. There's no one else like that, we love each other tremendously(sp?).
2010 - Had a bad car accident in Dec '09 which laid me up for a few months. Since had to retire from work due to disability.
2005-2010 - Working 58 hours a week as a first article inspector for a manufacturer which repairs and manufacters main landing gear and assemblies for the majority of the aerospace industry.
I have 30 plus years in the inspection vocation mostly with the aerospace industry.
