Hi AZCA
I thought I would update my reason for not signing on to a mobile home for the Walleye trip. In June when I was hit with 3 different infections in my lungs and spent 8 days in limited ICU. They got the infections cleared up but in the process I lost a lot of lung function. I was on 4 liters when I was at LP and was already loaded with the infection. In June when they had me in ICU they uped my Oxygen to 10 liters a minute at rest and 15 if I'm walking or doing anything physical, which is a lot. also when I asked they gave me 6 months. Well I passed that mile stone in Dec. I'M feeling OK when resting but can't walk far(30') even on 15 liters. So I'm writing an Autobiography of work history for my Grandkids so they will know what grandpa did. I worked for 141 contractors in the 50 years I worked and I had a work record from my DOD security (L) clearance to guide me. also will have highlites and important events including Lake Powell Walleye trips and AZ Crappie fishing, I sent my dues in because I enjoy the dialog on the web and don't want to lose contact with people we enjoyed. PS the books will be for sale and some monies going to the Burn Camp out of the University of Utah kids that were burned in fires and some to sick and needy electricians. Sincerely The Freshwatertramp
Jerry, so sorry to hear all the stuff you've been going through. I can't imagine what it's like. You have been and are a great example to the club and myself for how to make the best of what's been given to you. Attitude is everything, right? I'll continue to look for your updates on this site and Facebook. Take care Freshwater.
p.s. we still are using the wooden box you gave me and the kids - we have decks of cards and so forth in it.
Your in our prayers my friend. .....Art
Jerry, keep fighting, we'll see you next year for sure.
