Man, that sucks! I, seriously, do hope things go well for you.

We have not met, but have had opposite views on topics.

I would not wish what you are going through on my worst enemy.

Get well !!

So Rick.. are you saying you aren't allowed to master bait or just that there's nothing to get a hold of while sitting on that ice pack???

 

Good luck Bud !!

 

BTW... maybe you'll get too young nursing students in their 20's that haven't learned to "talk" yet! lol

The only way this sounds like it could be more painful, is if they had to go in around the corner via the "Hershey Highway"!

Hi Rick,

 

As some one who has had more than his share of "issue" 15 surgeries in 14 years all that i can say is keep the faith. The mental aspect is more than 50% of the game and their is a light at the end of the tunnel and hopefully it is not afreight train .

 

Good luck,

Best of luck bud, you've overcome worse, this should be like walking the pier.

[fishingisliving]

Hang in there!!

 

My wife was diagnosed with Level 3 Breast cancer (level 3 meaning it spread to lymph nodes and possibly in the blood stream) 4 years ago and today is anxiously waiting her 5th year to be in full remission. Good things do happen when you dont give up hope! My best friend was diagnosed with testicular cancer last year, so I cant say I have been through what you are, but I have been sitting very close by to it and lived and still do go through the emotions following all this. I know the feeling with the financial side, cancer is not cheap... So if you ever want to chat with a fellow fishermen and get a positive perspective from a stranger (sometimes it helps) dont be shy,

send me a message!

[TJQ]

 

I''l take two.. I couldn't handle them.. but Ill give em the best evening of disappointment they have ever had!!

 

Im working hard for ya Rick!!!

 

This will all turn out OK!

[wuchikubo]

Rick, I've only met you once at a x-mas swill 2 years ago but I recall you being one of the classiest guys there. I wish you all the best of luck and the speediest of recoveries!

 

Hope you fish with you sometime in the near future.

[dannyboy]

I hope all goes well for you Rick.

I live close by so if there is anything you need or want let me know.

I plough snow in commercial areas on a crew so if you need snow ploughed PM me your address and I will make arrangments.
