I'll second that! Mike, you don't know how much it warms my heart that you are able to do this thing. I wish you the very best with it. Take some pictures for us, ok.

MIKE!!!!

good for you, buddy, and a very wise choice ~~indeed!


i shore hope that you WILL take it easy and i would suggest a couple of weeks of some abs crunches and sum torso twisting to prepare you for your maiden voyage......................

yaks can be murder on the back, if not properly stretched and yer muscles ready for that type of "exercise". not being a naysayer, but
there's nothing worse than getting jazzed about starting sumthing new, only to incurr another set-back that may further depress you.

keep hanging in there, you and Karin both, and keep us informed of your progress. and just so YOU know
my contribution was unconditionally given ~~as was most of them, i hope??!

GENTLEMEN, it's up to Mike to choose and only HE can answer
for HIS choices, not you, not me, and not the fence post. for cripes sakes,
he's just trying to get out and wet sum lines, exercise, and begin the lifelong process of
teaching/training his body how to cope with such a DEBILITATING disease at this late stage in HIS Life.

Mike may God be closer to you and Karin than ever before,
and may your prayers be answered in humility and Grace.
God's speed and His Faithful Blessings sustain you, in ALL your ways.

more dough on the way, buddy, as i've been blessed with sum
recent OT!! some double bubbles for me and the family and i am very happy
to share, whatever we can share, to aid you and yer family with its
current set of woes.

i encourage you and applaud you for being so open about such a private matter and perhaps there are sum lessons to be garnered for many of us from your willingness to share what is MOST CERTAINLY some very difficult choices, sacrifices, and losses that have crossed your path of late. i'm hoping and praying for your return to tha suds, sooner rather than later!!!

baby steps, bro. but if i know you ~~you'll be runnin' and gunnin' for the Striped Ones, ASAP!!!
Chin up and CHEERS, mate!

better prepared for your maiden voyage.

the parts of your body that the yak will attack..............

Yes indeed that would be nice! Btw six-packs are way over rated, that's why I went with the keg.
