To all the members of this site whom I know and to those i have never meet before. I will be having my right leg removed on this Monday 26Th at about noon. I have dealt with this problem for over the past 6 years. I have finally lost another round of infection in my knee. It will be removed about 6" above my right knee. Hopefully this will give me some better quality of life. So as the next events or Labor day boating remember I wish I could be there. I ask that everyone to respect the mods and respect each other for you will never know when a life changing event to make you look at what you miss the most. Thanks Bill"cookieman"

My Thoughts and Prayers will be with you and your family Bill . You know I am not very far from you guys , so if something comes up that I can help you with let me know ..

I mention this before , My cousin lost her leg a couple years ago from cancer , the quality of life it a lot better than it would have been if the cancer continued . She gets around very well now and she even started swimming again . So hang in there ..

Bill. I hate reading this but I know it's probably for the best as it seems like a last option. I've prayed for you already but will continue to do so.

Duane and I will do our best to maintain THB to the standards in which you've set for the short time you'll be gone.

I know I live a few hours away....however if you need anything, holler.

I fondly remember when we met and I fit you and your whole crew in my tiny 13' Boston Whaler. Lol....good times man.
