The last note I got had a strange title.
Things are good.
Well,that goes to show ya,the strength of an' Irishman.
Daves up, awake,out of surgery.Of course very groggy.He was in surgery for 12 hours,mostly working on the hand.The good news there is,he'll get to keep the hand...the bad news, he has lost two fingers. The surgeons apparantly worked miracles in saving most of his hand. One of his legs is broken,but thankfully did not require surgery. His wrist didn't do so well. Doctors have inserted two pins to hold that together. He has torn ligaments in his shoulder. They laced his head up the back with twelve stitches...thankfully,there is no skull fracture.
Here's where a man's true form is revealed.
He told Saddletramp to tell us not too worry about get well cards an' such and that he knows how we work here at the Org,and he won't accept any donations. He would however be open to receiving a note or two via email.
Get this...if anybody is thinking about donations,Dave said he'd rather have them push the support button at the top of this page.
This next part is in Dave's own words(as told to SaddleTramp),I left it that way because I the love the Irish tone it has.
...if this is so send email instead!! BUT HOLD THE THOUGHT OF SENDING A CARD HE KNOW'S WHAT SOME GUYS ARE LIKE WHEN IT COMES TO DOANATING THEY HAVE ALL BIG HEARTS BUT SOMETIMES NOT BIG WALLETS AND THINK THAT BY DOANATING TWO OR THREE EUROS TO A CAUSE JUST WONT MAKE A DIFFERENCE!! BUT IT WILL SO HERE IS WHAT HE'D LIKE ANYBODY WHO HAS THE THOUGHT OF SENDING A GET WELL CARD. TO LOOK UP AT THE TOP OF THE SCREEN (LEFT HAND SIDE) YOU'LL SEE A SUPPORT BUTTON!! (PUSH IT) SEND YOUR TWO OR THREE DOLLARS TO THE DAD OF OUR CLUB HOUSE SO HE CAN GET THE ROOF FIXED ON OUR SITE TO STOP THE RAIN COMING IN.
Fresh outa surgery,and man still has a sense of humour,and good thoughts for all of us.
Thats it for now....Dave you're the BEST.
My deepest respect... Rubbah.
