Joey,
You are absolutely right...the family, and our kids in particular, are the
priority...thank God you are alive and will, eventually walk again...
Now about that parachute jump and the first rebuilt ankle... :-)
There's gotta be a story there...perhaps Jump School?

Gordon,

 Yes I will walk again,  the question is when, my left ankle is rebuilt with

Titanium as is my right ankle ( done in 1983 parachute drop )  and now my 
pelvis also,  so at least I have value for scrap metal,....
the question is my spine,  the Doctors have taken a wait and see attitude 
about it so about every 6 weeks I go in for x rays and they poor over them 
and tell me to come back in 6 weeks. Friday is the next set of x rays,  I 
cant put any pressure on my left ankle yet so I am one legged right now, BUT

it beats being DEAD,   I have two young Sons and that would have really been

tragic,


 

                                    Joey
