Update on Malainse prayers please

[malainse]

Weds am

We are out of ICU!!!!!!! Lots of pain but sense of humor is coming through........ actually asked how I was going to rig the boat up for a wheelchair so he doesn't miss the steelhead season. There you go guys - any suggestions????

Mitch has always talked about how this site was a great group of people and seemed like a family. I agree. When I see all the prayers and comments you have made it brings tears to my eyes. Thank you doesn't seem like much right now but "THANK YOU". All your prayers are appreciated and please continue to pray as we have a long road of recovery ahead.

Mrs. M

Update 4/13/2009

I just wanted to update this for Mitch since today he is having a long awaited neck surgery. He will be hospitalized for 3-5-7 days (?) and then home for months of recovery..........................

Please keep Mitch in your prayers for a successful operation and speedy recovery. He will be gone from the site for a while and I wish him the best.

Here is a link to the original post at the time of his motorcycle accident in 2005.

Mrs. M

Not a problem there. As soon as he feels like he is able I would be happy to help figure something out. If his boat doesn't work we can take mine. I will have room for him in there easily.

Glad to hear things have improved and look forward to hearing from Mitch soon. Thanks for the update.

[Backwoods-Savage]

Prayers are continuing. Amen

Glad to hear things are starting to get better. Keep him smiling!

asked how I was going to rig the boat up


Hey....don't worry about that...I'm a Theatrical Rigger by trade...IF we can drop a car out of the ceiling and make elephants fly, I'm pretty sure we can get you on the boat and anchored down...... No pun intended :evil:


I'll keep bugging the big guy upstairs for ya!! Get home soon!!!

[Rondevous]

Get better man!

We need to spend a few days out in the woods spring or fall.

Godspeed on the recovery!
Best,
Kirk

IM HOME :woohoo1: I have a long way to go but is great to be home......So for the next few months will be spending a lot of time here. 10 weeks before I can start to walk/ put weight on my legs......4--6 weeks before the Halo comes off....

Once again. Thanx for all the thoughts and prayers......

Mal.

You do look a little googly eyed.:dizzy::lol:

I hope you are feeling better soon Mitch.

[huntingfool43]

Good luck, been there twice and wearing that coller is no fun. At least you had it done before it got real warm out so you don't have to deal sweating to death in that thing.
