Thanks for informing me; I didn't know this about cancer. I agree that few of us are ready for retirement, but I was certainly more ready for it than I was for continuing in an abusive relationship with the company I was working for. Want to read what I hope is an amusing story about that? It's My Job at the 'Industry Bowel Movement. It would be interesting, however, to find out how much illness later on in life is due to the massive change from working to not. Even if it doesn't apply to me.
