    Well I cant make it now Talked to the surgeon on the phone today he said I would most likely be on crutch's for 3 months and may never be able to get back in the hills tramping around, my life= ruined. Guess I better just stick to baking.

    Toby, I am not a surgeon and you certainly do need to follow their advice but I have an absolute belief in the power of positve thinking and strongly urge you to employ it on yourself. Having a positive mental attitude about the situation that confronts you will be helpful so once you have been through the surgery (and before) think frequently about affirming what it is you want to have occur. I served with a soldier in the 1970's who learned that the sore back that he had for months was actually being caused by wide spread cancer. John spent many months in Auckland Hospital undergoing invasive procedures but the doctors were never hopeful of the outcome and pretty much wrote him off but he eventually walked out of the hospital. I tell you this because this man adopted the attitude that he wasn't going to die just because he had cancer and the doctors said he would. Every day he visualised walking out of the hospital and spending a long and happy life with his family and he did just that. He is still alive today and doing all of the things that he enjoyed prior to this occurring.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Toby hold your head up mate.
    2010 while racing the national enduro champs I hit a tree.....
    Shoulder blown apart, 21 screws no movement..... They said your not going to ride again, you sure not going to shoot big guns again....
    I don't race but still ride, Kiwi Gregs brakes I can shoot any thing, even had A 50bmg.
    They don't always get it right, you have age and fitness on your side
