just sick and tired

about a month ago I smashed the crap out of my right knee, no ligament damage, just really bruised and was not able to kneel on it. while at the docs I brought my laundry list with me. On that list was a freckle that seemed to be growing, turned out to be melanoma. Friday they cut 2 spots outta me, left forearm and another spot on my back. I am just getting sick an tired , just seems like every year something new comes up to screw up my fishing time. have to stay out of the water for a week and hopefully all lights should be green by then.

So... just a heads up to everyone if you even suspect a change in your skin or see a change in a freckle, mole, birthmark, take note and see a doc. Melanoma can be bad shi*,

I dunno, red - ya gotta try to take it in stride, I guess

Glad to hear ya caught it anyway and you're gonna be back on track pretty soon

I always used to say gettin' old ain't for lightweights, now I find I've gotta walk the walk...

Still beats the alternative is my feeling anymore

"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.
