1st I apologize for the strong language !!!!!

The last few yrs. my back has kept me from attending a lot of get to geathers.

4 east coast cookouts, Hershey 1, one time at Hershey all i could do was stand in the

peoples choise area and talk to people,wasn,t able to meet Doc. and the guys at

Duke's,I spent that night flat on my back in bed.

In the last yr. I have 2 opperations compleated, and was going to have 2

cortizone shots this week. SO I could go to Hershey. Well yesterday morning i

started to cough , and in the process i fractured a other vertabra. Which judgeing

on past expenence ,i will have to have another opperation !!!!

I fully intended that this would be for the last time, as i must sell my 914 early

this yr. As beening on pention isn't all that great and we really need the money,

I just don't seem to be able to catch a break! Right?

Anyway thanks for listening to the ramblings of a pissed off 70 yr. old.

If a all possible i will try to make it, but not holding my breath.

Thanks Dave

I am sorry to hear your back is messed up again.

Dude that SUCKS.

Wish you the best. Hopefully, no surgery will be needd this time around.

Well if its any help, your tale has inpried me. I was feeling old at 53.

I guess I better quite with the excusses and get some work done.

PANELBILLY : I'LL TRADE YOU ANYTIME !!!!!!!! Dave

Dave,
That sux!!! I have degenerative disc disease, I have been lucky and have been able to avoid surgery, but I definately can feel your pain!!!

I just cleaned up the garage a bit, come on down and I'll epoxy that sucker for ya. I only have crude anesthetic (alcohol), though

If I can help with the car sale, let me know. Maybe we can relay it down here for the swap and help you sell it? It should not be that hard to do.

Sorry to hear bud. I can relate. I have a Harrington rod about a foot long in my back and a fusion mid way down. Take care of it the best you can.

High School football wrecked my back along with 5 years as a warehouseman. I do exercises that pretty much keep the pain away so I have been really lucky. I know about back pain and I'm very sorry you've had so much trouble. Good luck. Also, I've always meant to ask if a full size pic of your avatar is available anywhere?

Cheers, Elliot

Nothing but sympathy here, My family's middle name is health problems. Living with constant pain is soooo bad. I could write a book on what it's taken to get my wife walking again, I probably should. I probably would if I wasn't so lazy.

Dave.

I am so sorry to hear about your back issue. Please call me anytime I can be of help. You have been a long time 914 friend & I wish you the best in health.

Tom

Damn Dave, I heat to hear things like this. Hope Mikie can help you out with the car. Back probablems SUCK... I just took my meds and will be feeling better in a moment or two. At least I can still go there.

Dave - that just bites. Sorry to hear you back just won't leave you alone! one of these days we're just going to have to drive out to Ohio and visit! Note - i believe I still have a shirt for you from the ECC last fall - we'll mail that to you!
