Sorry for busting in this forum. Just wanted to let my Woodnet friends what is happening
and trying to keep it short. I have been in and out of the Hospital 8 times since January 2015. This last time which I am still here since Christmas Day. They gave me some due for a CT scan and about ruined my Kidneys. I was Intubated 3 times and spent several weeks in ICU. I am now going on my 2nd week of re-hab learning how to walk again which is slow going, they tell me possibly another 2 or 3 weeks. I am learning how to use a walker.
Thank You so much Joe checking with my Wife, I appreciate this very much. Hopefully I can get back in the shop and of course get back to Woodnet soon. By the way I lost 70lbs thus far, not the way I wanted to loose weight.
Thanks every one and sorry to hi-jack this thread.
Steve

Steve, so very glad you're on the mend. Keep at it and don't give up, this is your most important project yet, yourself. Hoping and praying for a full recovery.
Take care,

STEVE !!!
It is great to hear from you and especially hear about your progress. Keep up the rehab and keep your eye on the shop. Shopwork is some of the best rehabilitation there is. Fluffy shavings rule!
Love and prayers are going your way.
