Poor Lofdoc’S Almanac

Short and Sweet

By: Lofdoc (Lots of Fishing Doc)

A humble and grateful confession! Many months ago, when I had completed and had published my third book, Lofdocs Stories: Short and Sweet, with the subtitle An Octogenarians Oracles, I was asked the question Will this, your third book, be your final contribution to the world of literature? I responded by saying, I would love to continue exploring new vistas, but the laws of nature will always have the final say; after all, I am eighty-nine years old. Well, now, the rest of the story. I guess I am no different than anyone else; after all, we are all birds of a feather, are we not? When the mountain climber was asked Why do you climb mountains? his answer was Because it is there. And so it is with me. I write because I am still here. But I confess that I reverently hope that I would still be around to continue to tell you the rest of my stories. So yes, dear reader, I have poured many hours of pure joy into this, my fourth book. There are stories titled Crying Out in the Wilderness, The Ten Armed Swimmer, Quackery, The Sand Dollar, Treasures of a Nursing Home, etc. I have tried to be accurate, sincere, and entertaining. I have given you a new world of thoughts and remembrances that you will hopefully embrace and enjoy. I sincerely believe this, my fourth volume, represents the best of all my lifetime literary efforts. I hope you will embrace and enjoy my little stories as much as I have loved writing them. I now give you Lofdocs fourth book. Oh, by the way, perhaps you might want to know about my use of the name Lofdoc as my pseudonym. No secret. I love fishing, so Lots of Fishing Doc. Yes, I am a retired doctor of medicine. I had practiced medicine (solo) for over thirty years in Ohio. I now devote most of my time caring for my medically wounded angel, my wife of sixty-five years.

LofDoc: The Story Teller

By: LofDoc

This, my book, LOFDOC THE STORYTELLER, is different than most tomes that you may have encountered. It is different, because it is a veritable sm�rg�sbord of juicy subjects that I had encountered over the past 92 years of life on this planet; and I feel comfortable, and privileged to share these many stories with you. Over the past many years, I have encountered many situations, that have made me laugh, and some that made me cry - I have reflected those emotions in, a wholesome manner, in my stories, that will allow, you the reader, a few moments, to share those treasured moments of the past with me. We will relive my 67th wedding anniversaries' happiness when we read THE FOREVER DAY; we will re-experience my early year's frustrations when learning to water-ski, and sadly, we will cry when we learn about the trials and tribulations of Alzheimer's disease.

Lofdoc's Stories: Short and Sweet

Medical and Personal Views

By: Lofdoc

The stories that I offer you, are a compilation of many subjects, thoughts and emotions. They are, when viewed in their entirety, a veritable snapshot of my life on this planet. I have included my views of medical subjects that I had encountered during my thirty plus years as a Doctor of medicine (Internal Medicine) during the 1950s, through the 1980s. There are stories that have happy endings and, alas, many with sad conclusions. There are many animal, nature and sports stories and, best of all, stories about aquatic life (fish). As I have encountered lifes mysteries throughout my lifes journey of 86 years, I have recorded the psychological, emotional and physical impact on the human and animal world.
