Title: Oh Happy Day!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: countrygirl on December 12, 2007, 05:21:00 PM
We have great news!  Tom saw the surgeon this morning and he has released him!  Tom has lost 36 lbs....mostly water weight that was around his heart...they said that in 2 weeks he can try shooting a bow...if it hurts...to stop wait 4 or 5 days and then try again.  They also say he will feel 30 years younger in about a year!  right now he looks about 20 years younger.  He still has the white head of hair though!   :)

Great news! Keep an eye on him! If he is anything like most of us (men), he may try to push himself a bit harder than he should. After all, we are talking about shootin' bows! God Bless-Mike

Thanks everyone for the prayers and good wishes!  Tom says...I don't have to remind Tom to take it easy....all he has to do is sneeze and he is reminded to take it easy.  He says it feels like being shot with about 8 Wensel Woodsmans at one time.

Great news Dina. I know that this is a great Christmas present. Sent you and Tom a PM.
For those of you that don't know Tom, he is a carbon fiber tough guy with a wit as sharp as his broadheads. I have shot with Tom at the club 3D's for around 10 years. At one shoot, when I asked him how he shot, he replied "like Ray Charles on crack". I laughed so hard that I had tears in my eyes. Another time, I was having such a bad day shooting, he asked me if my husband shot too:) He is a great guy to have in your corner. Tom, glad you are getting better. I look forward to seeing you at the club.
