D. Martell Some delays...

[Deckhand]

Well everything could be serious but hopefully won't be. I had a septic elbow injury which brought to light a heart problem. Now I've got some new drugs to take and get used to and I have to drop some old drugs (go cold turkey) which is whacking me out a bit. I suspect it's just a matter of time until things settle out and I'll just do what I can in the meantime.

Thanks for all the well wishes.

Your septic elbow was a blessing if you found out about a heart condition. You hear people talking about heart attacks, but most people umm... aren't talking. You are very fortunate to be able to address the condition. Best wishes for improved health. They have amazing techniques and medications to help once a problem is identified. One of my best friends frequently catches 200lb tuna with a pacemaker.

LMAO yep he does too. I fish and hang out with him and Joe Pfister. Old school would be a jack pole and a feather:biggrin: or a shell or bone hook for really old school.

Get well. Stop whacking out, you could go blind... I always take an illness as a sign that I need to buy something new; usually knife related.

These situations usually force us to reflect on what matters in life and appreciate things more.
