Hate to hear you guys are dealing w/those health issues...hope there's some relief in your future and that you do OK...

Ridge is right...we all take our health for granted til something unexpected knocks us down...

Even aleve makes me bleed internally after just 3 pills of it. I built up a tolerance to pain meds in general as well from it, so they don't really work anyways. I'm a tough one to put under anastesia due to my tolerance of pain meds. I'm also allergic to demerol due to my stomach as it makes me go into violent vomiting. basically I have just learned how to deal with it on the regular days, work smartly on the good days, and DON'T work on the bad days.

hey do u suffer with depression

Well at 51 I broke my first bone and I have never been out of work before and its hard sitting in a recliner 16 hrs a day, I need to be cleaning my boat. Thank god my son has stepped up at work and is basically running the business for me.

BTW this happened the Monday before the Charleston trip .....that's why I'm not in the pictures.

Nice chair...

Hmmmmm.... no bruising or discoloration on the toes.. looks fishy to me. You know... anyone can wrap their leg with some ace bandages and say they are hurt... Hell, I know of a few guys that used to do that on skiing trips all the time ... they picked up chicks that way. Just because your boat needs cleaning was no reason to fake an accident ... we'd still like you even with a dirty vessel.
