I normally would not write an "I'm leaving post".  I love Steemit!  I see some nice changes have been made to make it easier for new users. 

Unfortunately I had a medical emergency. Spent some time in the hospital due to a nerve condition I have in my spine. It caused some serious internal issues.  It made me think long hard about the amount of screen time I use, the amount of sitting etc.  and changes I need to make to my life in order to balance work etc. 

I simply cant spend the time needed for Steemit right now. I hope to be back. If anyone wants to continue the Song Collaboration Project. You should!  Steemit is a great place and I see only good things on the horizon. I would like to Thank #Ecotrain they are a great group of folks just trying to make the world a better place.  I hope to be back. 

Me on Morphine. No Sad Violins.  I am much better now.
