@Nick_Searles I have always had a dark sense of humor, even as a kid. I was born into a family that used dark humor as a way to cope with emotionally difficult situations. Does that mean it runs in the family? Because mom and dad were both pretty with it when they passed.
@cjcrew Dad had Alzheimer's and mom, Dementia. I'm just not sure if I'm taking the A or the D train.
@Nick_Searles Maybe you’ll be luckier and catch the “C” train instead. For all we know this might involve something from the environment like lead in the water. Things weren’t as sanitized back when I was young as they are today. I was 7-8 years old when they started talking about water and air pollution. I remember them declaring Lake Erie dead from pollution, it’s cleaned up quite a bit.
@cjcrew Dad was a 4 pack a day smoker at 350 pounds with a bad heart and circulation issues. Mom never smoked, walked everywhere and took Zumba classes in her early 80's. Drank a little. Dad would drive 1 block rather than walk.
No idea how polar opposites got the semi same thing.
@Nick_Searles Also realized you could be talking about second hand smoke too. I think my asthma was caused by second hand smoke as a child. I’m sure I made it worse by smoking when I was a teen/into adulthood by the base was set in my childhood living in a house with two heavy smokers.
