   *Hi, Dave - I've been thinking about a mouthpiece - mainly because I haven't been able to clench my jaws like I used to.It sure makes a big difference in strength.Didn't realize it until I lost a couple of lower molars.

   I don't know how many time I have banged my shins in the course of doing simple construction things. After Chemotherapy my healing time from simple bruises and cuts was lengthened considerably. WHAT TO DO? I selected a soccer shin guard as protection. There are many brands but I picked the one that is soaked in water, fit to your leg while the material sets, and then let it dry. They fit, I put them on each morning and I can't tell you the number of time climbing ladders, moving re-bar, lumber etc that those shin guards have saved me lots of grief. They are put on each morning right after my steel toed shoes (toe protection). Frank
