Thanks, I'll hopefully get the link to my digital copy. I stopped getting
the printed version because it got to expensive and took 6weeks to get here.
I felt a tad ripped of.

Any way, look forward to the article.

It's nice to see someone we know and who takes part in our group get

Well folks, I just thought I'd bring you up to date as to what is happening
with me.

 

First I'd like to thank all who prayed for me while I was in the hospital..

 

I had atrial fibrilation and after three days they got my heart beating
properly.

 

My wife had a family reunion in Lake City, Co. the very next week so we
rented a car and drove. Spent the night in Cortex, Co. and drove to Lake
City the next AM.

 

Only got to fish one day because I just was not feeling good enough to leave
the cabin for several days.

 

My two brothers-in-law and a nephew and I  got to fish Lake Fork on Friday
for a few hours. Caught one nice 12" rainbow.

 

Felt real bad on Saturday so I stayed in the cabin while they all went jeep
4 wheelin.

 

Felt pretty good on Sunday and drove home, straight thru.

 

Went back to the Doctor on Tuesday and I was back in A-fib. He sent me right
away to the Cardiologist.

 

He gave me a new prescription and by the evening , my heart was beating
properly.

 

I have since been released to go back to work but decided that the message
God sent me , telling me to slow down was the tight thing to do.

 

I am now officially retired, but I got a part time job at the Bass Pro shop
and I will be working in the White River fly shop..

 

Tough assignment, but I guess that is what I am supposed to do with all my
extra time.I know but some one has to do it...hahahahahaha

 

 

Thank You,
Alan Di Somma
