You guys ought to know I wouldn't complain about a cut unless parts are
missing afterwards...

It's something I caught. Not a fish. Not an STD - I'm very careful now that
there are things penicillin won't cure.

I caught a fat man! Well, maybe not fat but he was bigger than me by a good
six or eight inches and maybe a hundred pounds..... And thanks to my
selfless act, he was totally unhurt. I was in a position to hold on tight
and let him land right on my arms....

Most of the tendons in my shoulders are somewhat longer than they used to
be, tears in both rotator cuffs. Chiropractor is taking care of the lower
back.

The neck damage, well, the MD said I probably wouldn't have to wear a halo
and I said very definitely not. Ain't know way I'm getting my neck cut on.

Can't lift, stretch nor pull nor push. Can't reach, roll or curve cast.
Hard to walk uphill or down if it's a steep gradient.

Can't grab a branch to pull myself out of the river.

Certain showers activities compromised.

Surgeons report due soon.

Dying to get to Penns!

All my love, John . . .(I've really done it this time...)
