All Aboard
A Letter to Three Wives is a 1949 movie that takes place on the first Saturday in May.
Their “best friend” is announcing in the letter that she is running away with one of their husbands – but she does not say which one.

Threshold
The doorway is passable, but few are ready yet to cross the threshold and enter the hallway beyond.

Much deplored, that a place you devote your natural life to should be sadly destitute of cosy inhabitiveness.
Rather, think of a warm cabin with soft blankets, gentle lighting, and personal touches like books or family photos.

These two bicycled from one side of the USA to the other, just like this! Such a healthy duo!
Update 2024: I’m feeling fine. Getting energy back. Speech is still affected, but can at least communicate. Hoping focus on exercise and caloric restriction proves effective.
Update 2023: Doctor asks for me to take a look at the MRI. It is stable from before, not worse or better. The good thing is there is no contrast enhancement to suggest an ongoing active infection. Since steroids have not helped symptoms, think it is best to do another spinal tap (lumbar puncture) just to make sure there is no inflammatory process.

Boost
For human beings, motion is life. Our bodies are made to move. By exercising modestly on a regular basis, we can change the rate of our aging on a biochemical level. Regular exercise also improves mood, boosts energy levels, and builds self-confidence.
