Hey that's awesome Warp! Hope you can get a lot more days in this year too. Makes me think I should get my ass in shape so I'll still be able to enjoy skiing in my retirement years. :idea:

Sevie i ain't "nuthing special" really . But one thing i did do the FIRST NITE AFTER the surgery as i lie awake at 3 am and began to reflect on just what happened , and why and Why i was STILL ALIVE and How i would CHOOSE to react .

i had an ephipheny of sorts and decised i couldn't answer any of these profound questions except the last one .

I remebered the story of Victor FranKl a Nazi cc camp survivor who said " There's nothing i can do EXCEPT to CHOOSE HOW I WILL REACT . Then and there i made a deal and said this is going to be an ADVENTURE rather than a Drudgery and I WILL STAY POSITIVE NO MATTER WHAT .

That said you all know what a GREAT WOMAN i married and my son and daughter are like their mom and YOU GUYS and my in person friends and a great team of docs and nurses and the almighty ALL HELPED ME MAKE THIS long and strange trip . Every element here was crucial to success'

SO GUYS IN THE LONG RUN YOU ARE ALL A PART OF OLE WARP's jorney toward new life

does that give ya any idea of just how much this az group has helped and is valued

thanks to one and all __YOU ARE GOOD PEOPLE

POW : Hey bro i understand what ur going thru . Ihave never had the anxiety after the first week , yeah some days were better than others but i am of the opinion FOR ME that a positive outlook and a deep faith in a power bigger than me and all the support i've had keeps me going.

For over 4 decades i have taught all my students and clients to use a positive upbeat attitude and not worry about things we can't control. In 66 yrs of living i 'ver learned that THERE IS VERY LITTLE WE CAN CONTROL.Self doubt and worry to some some degree is normal the trick is to listen to your body and react . I am aware of how i feel but so far i am blessed and take this life journey one day at a time bro --one day at a time


VIBES ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Bro hang tuff n' happy
