First, I have written this before on this and the other forum. I think of this as my virtual community, neighbors and friends as it were. I have come to know and become friends with numerous people here and in the field. I cherish the time with those I have met on the water and shoreline. I will share that I believe in "thoughts and prayers" and that we should not be afraid to share. So... here goes...
Two requests...
First, if you're 45 or older (or have a family history, sooner), I ask that you please schedule a colonoscopy.
Second, I am asking for your thoughts and prayers. I was diagnosed with colon cancer on June 15th. I will be having surgery soon, with a estimated recovery time of 4 weeks. We still don't know what will come after that, with several appointments and tests done and several scheduled to come. My family and I are staying focused on the positive, finding joy every day in some small thing. Garden, Parades, Trail Ride and Lavender Farm Date.
I plan to fish when I can, but have been getting tired easy, so maybe no long trips until the fall. And already have some places lined up for the spring next year!
Thank you and MANY Tight lines to you all!
PS... naps in the shade are good!
