After the last few days, this post will update and surprise some. For others it will just be another in an obvious Clarke line of things we just do. My father has been known to gamble on occasion with the phrase "let it ride". With that passion at heart my dad has chosen to avoid any extra testing at this time and just see how things go. He has been feeling very good these days and wants to keep the momentum going for as long as he can. With a lack of real desire to seek any excessive treatment anyways this plan has personal merit for him. As long as he feels good he will just keep doing what he is doing in regards to bowel movements and medication. This decision alone has increased his level of activity and put a little spring in his step. Some times the cure for your ills is ignorance. And on a positive note, he has lost 13 pounds with a balanced diet and increased exercises.
