The 2018 Senior Health & Wellness Expo, brought to you by Wadley Regional Medical Center, was a smashing success this year and we just wanted to give you big thank you for coming out to keep tabs on your health and having a little fun with us at the Texas-side Convention Center.

By the time I got there, the craziness that started the day was winding down a bit but the crowd was still a good size.

The picture below is the inside of my ear! Did you know the eardrum is transparent? Me neither! Pretty clean though or I wouldn't have shown it to you. Blik!

That's me below, or my arm anyway, getting my blood pressure checked from a nice lady from Wadley Regional Medical Center. It was a bit high as I recall.

There's Chris from Christus St Michael checking my cholesterol and sugar levels. Again, a little high.
