the pain is tolerable and I should be in good shape to start hitting the fish in September. They better watch

| I was hit by a car while on my bike a number of years ago and fractured my neck. Ended up with C5, C6 fusion. Not fun stuff. Best of luck to you. Do your PT religiously. |

| Hang in there, Paul. I recall the pain you endured while fishing with me at Cass. I wondered if some sort of surgery would help take all that away and then you could once again fish pain-free. Sounds like that's where you're headed now, pain free musky fishing. You're a tough nut for sure and will come through it great. Keep us informed as to your progress, eh? Best wishes! |

Location: Eau Claire,WI | Thanks for the support.I need all I can get.I asked about the physical theropy and the Dr. said I
don't need any as of right now.I don't know if it is because of my current condition or what he is thinking.
I will ask his nurse this week,I know she will give me the answers. I am in pretty contant pain,it doesn't
matter what I do,jusat a constant pain,for me it is tolerable.I know it will improve as my neck heals.
THANKS again for all of your support! Those fish better be ready for me,I will be ready for them! Paul
PS: it has been almost 1 month since I smoked a cigorette! |

Location: Southern W.Va. | Cracked my neck a few months ago and I know it ain't fun. Hang in there and remember, there's a lot of people pulling for ya. Anyone tough enough to fish for musky ain't goin' let a little thing like this keep him down for long.
Best of luck and I hope there's a big one in the future for ya,
