The stories that I offer you are a veritable peek into the nonchalant (relaxed) world of the Author, Lofdoc. In contrast to the previous two books that have much emotional and personal confessions (book one, Medical and personal views); and many stories about animals, nature, and mystery stories (Book two, Fish Tales, and stories of the unusual) this third book, An Octogenarian's Oracles, is written in a clear, unbiased friendly sort of way. There are stories that are nostalgic (Willow trees); there are stories that reflect and admonish (Regrets) and there are just plain fun to read stories (water skiing, smile please, use it, or lose it). Over all, the book has many stories that will prompt comments such as: Yeah, I remember seeing that, or prompt a sighing reader to comment these stories are true, oh so true. And so dear readers, I have given you my very best efforts. I have tried to put in print almost all elements that characterize my life on this planet. To this end, I have incorporated all three books into a Trilogy titled: "LOFDOC'S STORIES SHORT AND SWEET" Book one - subtitle Medical and personal views Book two - Fish tales and stories of the Unusual Book three - An Octogenarian's Oracles I, Lofdoc, (Lots of fishing Doc) an 87 year old Octogenarian, hope you will enjoy my humble efforts, as much as I have enjoyed writing them.

The author, Andrew Opritza MD FACP, is an 87 year old retired medical doctor. He practiced Internal Medicine in the state of Ohio for over 30 years, Although he did write medical and animal stories over the past few years, it wasn't until he lost his only daughter the he wrote, while in deep despair, his first story "In Memory of a Duck" and silently dedicated it to his own lost little duck. Over the following months, then years, he managed to write and publish two books. The first book "Lofdoc's Stories Short and Sweet -Medical and Personal Views" (July 2013) and the second "Lofdocs Stories Short and Sweet- Fish Tales and Stories of the Unusual August 2013. The two books contain many medical, animal, and mystery stories. Lofdoc (lots of fishing doc) is his chosen pseudonym. The present book, Lofdoc's Stories Short and Sweet "An Octogenarian's Oracles" completes the trilogy. This, his final offering, has many stories that are a reflection of an active and inquisitive mind. There are stories that are nostalgic and haunting in nature, and there are many stories that are just plain fun to read. Most folks will easily relate to their wisdom and humor. When Lofdoc was asked if this third book was truly his final contribution to the world of literature, he responded by saying I would dearly love to continue exploring new vista in the future, but at the age of 87, the laws of nature will certainly have the final say.
