The PLMC yesterday whacked me so today I’m not getting carried away smoking this Epicure.

Fellow pipe smokers, i have been absent from the forum lately and for a reason. My father had a problem with one of his heart valves, we had a coronary angiogram in November 2024 but neither the local cardiologist nor the one at the public hospital we went to told us anything. The local cardiologist was very reassuring, "it's nothing...it's a minor operation...it won't take long...you'll be back the same day" etc. Suddenly my father's health deteriorated, we brought him here to Athens to a private hospital for a pre-operative check-up, the results were very bad and then we were forced to admit him for hospitalization, we spent a fortune and after 15 days the doctors told us "there's nothing we can do" because the damage was unreversed.
We took him home to the village and he passed away the next day in front of my mother. Yes, he was 87 years old but he walked with minimal help from a cane, he drove normally, he went shopping alone - to the pharmacy etc, if the doctors had warning us earlier he could live few years more, God rest his soul.






I am travelling tomorrow for the funeral's final preparation, few puffs with Captain Black Royal.





I will be ''Out of Forum'' for the next weeks too.

'17 VR Unicos. Very good but feel like they could age another 10- 20 years easy, just wish I had a full box not a few singles.
