Only probs I got are:
Tired
Hard to swallow
Can`t bend/work
had 3 bouts of bad chills
blood counts screwed off and on.
other than that, I`m pretty darn good!!!
Now trying to figure out how to wash/dry car. I ordered a brush today, now gotta figure out how to dry. I do a blow dry, but can`t follow up then.

JK! Spotless rinse then blow dry? That way any drips and such wont leave marks (theoretically anyway)

Yeah, then I gotta change the routine and do cure or overcoat when dry and in garage and wheel myself around on my stool.

I`d say that`s one hell of an improvement, right? Gaining weight? Another improvement. I can`t bend over either but it`s because I`m old and fat, you are improving, stay positive. EVERYONE HERE is on your side including The Lord and His Angels. Hang tough.

Actually, Ron has had one of the best attitudes I’ve ever witnessed going through something this significant. I’m not sure how he does it but I’d like a little of it to rub off on me. As always, a BIG THUMBS UP, Ron.

I fully realize that but decided to reinforce it in my own way. I`ve never met the man and consider that my loss.

Never tried it myself, but you could try a Sunjoe cordless pressure washer with a 5 gallon water reservoir. Fill that bad boy with distilled water and you can take as long as you want to dry your Z06. Or not at all. Let that Sunshine State do the work for you

I implore ALL Autopians to read the entire above Twitter link Ronkh has posted about terminally ill children and what they like most in life. It will make you think about what REALLY is important in a child`s life, especially those who know life`s time on this earth as we know it may be short for them personally. Makes me want to ask that very question of my self! (Hint: Yes, I LOVE ice cream, being from "America`s Dairyland", Wisconsin!)
There are not enough "thanks" to you, Ronhk, for doing this.

SO GLAD you`re doing so well. Your whole experience has been pretty positive overall, huh? I`m especially glad to hear that you`re able to enjoy that food you like so much, IMO that was a really good break.
Ah, what kind of brush? How you planning on using it? (Decades of BHB experience here..)
You using Deionized water? My CRS is simply great...
I gotta try some IUDJ through my new Lonn Cleaning Gun, that kind of approach might be worth considering, well...if it works the way I`m hoping, and if you have a compressor.

Well, fix that second part and maybe the first part won`t be much of an issue
I mean, gee...my father was still washing cars/working out in his late 80s, he thought nothing of it and said stuff like "what? there`s nothing wrong with me.." when people commented on it. Overall, I simply haven`t had many elderly folks of my acquaintance (and there`ve been a LOT of `em) experience age-related declines; it still seems unusual to me. A pal of mine just passed at 96, active and independent (living alone/driving/etc.) right up until the day before he died, still sharp as a whip at a meeting we attended a few months ago.

Figure out a way to affix your favorite drying towel to one of these guys?

I think the end of the handle is actually threaded so you might be able to trim a broom stick to adjust the handle length to your liking.

Don`t think I ever tested that one. Last time I did a Big Test the only (conventionally configured, "carwashing brushes") that passed were made by Universal Brush, though sold under a few names (including "Montana", although that`s not their gentlest one). All the others either had extraneous adhesive that could cause issues, or failed the CD-test, or had what I perceived to be some other disqualifying flaw. Please *do* CD-test it first
Last thing I`d want to to do is mar up that `vette, sheesh would that be a chore to fix!I trust you`re all dialed-in on how you gotta use a brush; most people`s technique = Scratch Machine even with a proper BHB, and they blame the medium.

I`ll be interested to hear how that works out (the stick/handle). I never get the right leverage for something like tire scrubbing, don`t really like it for wheels even, but maybe that`s just me.
