To all who have posted concerns, I thought I would set the record staight.

I have been off the grid since the end of January. Healthwise, I have had a pretty rough winter. Strep Throat, Type A flu and a respiratory infection back to back to back. After all of the Dr. visits and medication I was still not feeling well. About 3 weeks ago my family Dr. found a growth in my throat and referred me to a surgeon. The surgeon took a look at it and told me I had a tumor. I immediately scheduled the surgery. The Dr. removed the tumor and sent it in for a biopsy. I just got the results back. It was benign. I feel like the weight of the world had been lifted off my shoulders.
Another couple of weeks and I should be as good as old.

I really appreciate the kind words and concerns.
And to those I owe plugs to.......they will be forthcoming.

Thanks again to all,

John

Shiit! If getting a tumor wacked out of your throat makes you as good as new, maybe Flap should have his whole head taken off.

Glad you're OK, John.

Get well Bernzy!

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope. ~John Buchan
