365 Pink Feather Boas All in a Row - Day 48 : My Lungs Are Pensioners!

Yep the internal organs that I most value, after my heart of course, are 67!

How do I know this? Well its Health and Benefits Expo Week where I work, and as part of the razzamatazz, they are offering all sorts of tests for cellular age (tomorrow's fun test where I fully expect to be pronounced as, um, dead!), cholesterol etc. Today's test, which measured lung capacity and use, and was supposed to be a walk in the park for a healthy young-ish guy like me who eats right, exercises etc, turned out instead to reveal that my pathways are constricted from possibly asthma or something like that. Thing is, I need to get this checked out by a doctor to find out what I need to do to reverse it. I am trying not to freak out but unusually for me, I am finding it hard to shake off the sense that something is wrong.

But I will. I always bounce back.... and as I pointed to my gorgeous guy Steve (who said the assessment must be wrong because I am "gorgeous" - he's so sweet), in the case of my lungs at least, he's now a toy boi! So there's an upside there for him....
