DR. JOSEPH MASESSA, MY BROTHER'S KEEPER

My brother-in-law was always a man who loved his country, and who, like me, loved to serve in our military. He was over 14 years into his Air Force career as a flight mechanic when one of two chronic health problems caught up with him. He was overweight, and despite heroic efforts, he couldn't meet the physical standards of the Air Force. As such, while serving at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, he was forced off active duty. There was a severance package that helped to pay for a down payment for a house located about a mile from the base, but the release from active duty was extremely hard on him. To protect his privacy, I will just tell that his last name was MATTHEWS and I’ll call him that or my brother in this story. He is on the matrix below, as is TAMPA, but the axis term on the matrix below is an angelic DOCTOR by the name of JOSEPH MASESSA. He’s a dermatologist, and a great PILOT. He owns the AIRPLANE shown below the matrix. The doctor and MATTHEWS came to meet when the doctor flew into MacDill. Although my brother was forced from active duty, he continued to work at the base, doing the same job, but as a civilian with lower pay, and he had no health care.
