Son Update

[skiptomylu]

Well he went back to BAMC to rehab again and was doing pretty well until a tear opened again on his stump. It seems that in one spot his skin stuck to his bone and has no give so he tears it and now it looks like they will take the 3rd cut in a couple of months if it's not better. Really don't think there is a way for that to improve and they want to get back to better tissue. Part of the problem I think is his skin is so thin where he was burned.

He has been working his tail off though as far as getting in shape. They take bike rides (kind you peddle with your arms) of like 55 miles and of course in San Antonio it has been a brutal summer with almost 60 days of 100 or higher temps(when I was there about a month or more back it had hit 53 days in a row).

Other than that things are good for him and family. Had my grandson for a couple weeks again this summer and we had a great time.

He is going to go to Colorado this month for an Elk hunt so things are still great the way people treat our wounded warriors is absolutely wonderful. Oh and he did get another promotion a while back to E7.

I was hoping the next update would be saying it's finally over and he is done with rehab and all, but not quite yet.

father of 4 does great work making out military guys canes for the ones that need them. I salute him for sure and think he is working on another one now for a soldier at BAMC. You sir are a good man!

Anyway thanks to all our friends here at crappie.com,

Skip

Still sending prayers up for you all Skip!

[father of 4]

Prayers sent to your Son Skip. Thanks for the Compliment. I also have started a Non Profit Organization called Hunting with Soldiers where I take Soldiers and Disabled Vets hunting for free as well as I have bought a house where I will be putting them up for free. I am ran strictly on donations. I would be HONORED to take your Son on a deer or hog hunt Skip. You just let me know and we will get him scheduled when hes ready. NO CHARGE except his food and gas to get here.

[father of 4]

Oh by the way Skip, you can come on up with him if you want and hunt to my Friend. Nothing like the pain a Father goes thru when his Children hurt. If he has a kiddo that he wants to bring, come on with them too
