Thanks again EVERYONE!

I was able to visit Donna at the hospital yesterday, not that I haven't been in constant phone contact with her, neurology, infection control, opthamology, pain management, ENT, the nursing staff and her PCP. She had suffered a few serious setbacks including drug reactions, mega-migraines and finally what appears to be the flu. Despite all these adversities she has manged to pull through and I actually saw a smile on her face for the first time in a long time last night. She got her first night of quality sleep last night and we hope to get her home by mid-week.

I could write a book about this ordeal, but I'll leave that kind of work to Stephen King...I can't wait to start breathing more life into "Striper Islands" and my seminar series videos...I have a super talented artist working on the jacket cover and we expect to make it into the most awesome striper t-shirts you've ever seen. As soon as I have the finished artwork I'll post a low resolution copy.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you!

Glad to hear Donna is home and on the mend, Mike - I know what it feels like, best wishes for her continuing recovery!

It was a year ago next week that I went thru a health crisis with my bride that scared the Jehovah out of me - I don't care what anyone says, there are no atheists in an emergency room

Real anxious to see the new t-shirt - however, what's the chance of a tautog tee - ya know, maybe not a glamor girl like the striped bass but certainly worthy of respect

I know I'd be proud to be wear a likeness of one of those Reubenesque beauties, big lips, buck teeth and all...

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
