How I Am Like a Famous Actress

Cher at 74.

This year (in fact today) I turned 75, just like Cher, Sally Field, Goldie Hawn, Candice Bergen, Liza Minelli, Dolly Parton and Talia Shire, and despite how great we all look (except me), it's no picnic. Even though I have not contracted Covid, am in good health, work out with a Crossfit trainer twice a week, go for daily walks, can see perfectly well and have all my marbles, nevertheless I do have what one can term "ailments" that are quite annoying. Except for one that is too personal to divulge, they are:

BPPV (Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo) 

BMS (Burning mouth syndrome)

Dry Eye Syndrome

GAD (General anxiety disorder)

Heart Disease

Hemorrhoids

Hypertension

IBSC (Irritable bowel syndrome with constipation)

Tinnitus

Varicose Veins

So the next time you see any of those glamorous celebrities all dolled up on the Red Carpet or wherever, you can bank on most of them having some, if not all, of these as well. No wonder so many of them go in and out of rehab.
