NON-COMBATANT

To keep quarrelsome people away, I am thinking that I may need to wear a large sign, like an old fashioned wearable sandwich board, that reads:

NON-COMBATANT

73 years old

angina

atrial fibrillation

arrhythmia

tachycardia

heart stops with heart attacks

several strokes

breathing difficulties

massive, chronic pain

non-stop fatigue

But even spelling it out may not be enough to ward off some folks, they refuse to perceive my difficulties and persist in quibbling and quarrelling at me. I cannot sustain it. Must I become a non-combatant sign?
