It sometimes seems that you do worry a lot, VP, and keep warning us about bogeymen in the closet.
As Mudder said, we just want you to relax and enjoy your retirement.
I think that golf has a lot of health benefits including fresh air and walking,
and it's one activity that people can do, even with limited dexterity.
My next door neighbor golfs at the age of 92, bless him.
