      Jeez Soupy – i’m 56 & you’re ripping my heart out man!
      I like the Mel Gibson movies where Danny Glover keeps saying “I’m getting too old for this shit!”
      not my words, his words – so excuse me posting it here!
      Not to go down that route, but i think we’re all in the departure lounge, best to enjoy what we’ve got! Eh?
      My cousin in Ireland who is older me says ” Johnny if i ever turn do-lally-tap, you’ll take me out & shoot me, won’t you?”
      with a mischievous look in her eyes – as if i’d do such a thing!
      What can i say man! Gutted…

        And my biggest concern lately has been chasing a good sax deal. Puts that in perspective. Sorry to hear mate. Not easy to put that in writing to virtual strangers. If nothing else you might inspire a few of us to stop procrastinating on that daily practice session thinking the fluent player we dream of being is too far away and just get about doing it now because you just never know……..

            I appreciate the time each of you took to respond. It rips me up to think of abandoning something that was sort of “on my bucket list” of things to achieve. I talked with the guy who sold me the horn, and he is willing to take it back, and give me a full refund. That’s very kind of him.

            Do me a small favor, will ya (each of you)………….someday, somewhere, when you are playing your horn………..dedicate a song you play to “soupy. The guy who always wanted to be one of us, but just couldn’t.” I’ll find great comfort in knowing that somebody somewhere, played his/her best for me………….just “because.”

                  Hi Soupy
                  don’t let MS give up your dreams. You might have to adapt but you can still achive things. Maybe you are a bit hasty to give up your sax who knows after your MRI and the right treatment you might still be able to annoy the neighbours with your sound. I wish you and your wife all the best.
