Joe, sounds like you are chugging along :-). 78 days is big progress!
I'm also in the over 60 category and have had several health issues that were either caused by alcohol or were made worse with it. As I'm adjusting to retirement and the realization that we truly are not immortal (!), I'm very motivated to stay sober and take care of myself. Regrets don't do much good but I do think about it occasionally.
