Say A Prayer....
This is not something I would normally do but felt it was appropriate in this case.
Some of you met my good friend last year at the MASS BASS Show and some of you have heard of him through the grape vine and in writings....
My firend Paul "The Skisher" Melnyk had a terrible work related accident two days ago where he lost 3 fingers. He is recovering now in I.C.U. in a local hospital but it is unclear if he will have use of fingers again even though they were re-attached .
Paul is a great guy with an incredible personality and is always laughing no matter the situation. Even this morning, when I called him, he was joking and laughing and made light of the situation.
He is one of a kind and I wish him full recovery! Paul probably won't see this.... Paul, can't wait till we can swim to that rock that seems too far away, to fish together again and laugh.

Sorry to hear about you friends accident, I wish him the best and hope he can pull thru with the therapy and get full use of his fingers again. Tell him to push his hardest well upto what the therapist tells him to push... I can some what relate to his situation, I don't want to elaborate on details with my situation but I only wished I pushed an extra 10% or more but pain was my problem, and with the stupid pain killers I was zombified and useless to continue with my exercises. |

Paul good luck. Sometimes difficult things lead to great things, like maybe a 50 when ya hit the surf again, id say that would be a great reward for overcoming this.
