Barry Wensel Update

[Barry Wensel]

I'm not sure if this is in the right forum but I wanted to thank all my "brothers of the bow" for their calls, letters/notes and prayers this last week. It's been overwhelming and heartwarming to say the least. My diagnosis was congestive heart failure/ atrial fibrilation. Causes were a combo of increased blood pressure, pre-diabetic (both of which were already being treated); sleep apnea and some residual scar tissue/heart damage from a head-on collision I was in back in 1966. I'm now on six neds; can't drive or lift 5 lbs. for a couple weeks, etc. But my long term prognosis is good with some life changing adaptations. The good news is Gene now not only has to hang all my treestands but also gut and drag out all my big bucks. Additional to that, we just received word my youngest son Brad and his wife Alicia, who live/work in Australia, blessed us with a brand new 8 lb. 2 oz. grand-daughter named Tenley Aspen yesterday afternoon(their first). So things are looking up. Again, a heart-felt (no pun intended) thank you for all your kind words and best wishes. BW

Glad to hear your doing better. If you and Gene need any help I am willing. I can hold the camera while taking video of Gene's kind willingness to help you with difficult tasks, something that might bring some joy when needed later. Take care!!!

Glad to hear that you are feelin better.  Listen to what the doctors say for the next couple of months, my dad went through had a similar problem and he is hard headed like the most of us.  Well, it almost cost him BIG,  Take it easy Barry!!!!

Seems just when you think we have life figured out we get a curve ball to make us stronger. Best wishes to you, your wife and family.
