On June 9th, 2008 my wife and I will celebrate our Fiftieth Wedding Anniversary.
We married in Corning NY the day after I graduated from Alfred University in Alfred New York. My wife Carol was attending nursing school at Alfred and was studying at Corning Hospital.
We left NY state and have been all over the world since then. We have lived in many states and many countries over the past 50 years and are now settled (for the time being) in Fredericksburg VA.
Lots have changed in 50 years and I am afraid my classmates will not recognize me. Fifty years have resulted in many biological changes and some physiological ones too.
As a result, I have embarked on a strict regimen of exercises.
However, I don't think that they are working. I fear that many will say "Who is that?" Can you imagine, they will not recognize me! I don't think I look much different. A few more grey hairs and about 35 pounds. Gravity has taken its toll and my barrell chest has become a rubber tire around my waist.
Folks there is not much time left. I need some help. Please oh Please let me know what I can do to keep from being so embarassed at my appearance. It has to be quick though. Only a few days left. Help me. Please help me. I may become depressed and have a breakdown.
