PRAYERS DO WORK (VERN)
Posted: Thu Feb 01, 2007 12:06 am
Haven't had a chance to thank everyone for their prayers and thoughts. I got out of the hospital today about 4:30 PM.
I had what they call a MINI stroke last week. Thought everything was going to be OK. That is what I get for thinking. Went out Monday afternoon to do some work on tournaments felt fine. On the way home I started feeling weird. Got home and started feeling worse. I started to drive myself to the hospital that is when everything went goofy. I stopped by Greg Cyphers house he rushed me to hospital. I got there in time. They did alot of stuff that I really can't remember.The next morning I felt like a guinny pig after 8 hours of test and treatments. They got everything straightened out.
There was know real bad damage to the brain. I have lost some feeling on the left side of my body. It comes and goes. They feel that most of it will eventually go away.
They are a little worried about my heart condition but believe if I get the right treatmets and quit smoking that I will be OK.
They said I could go fishing as long as I have some one with me.
There is know way that I can thank everyone for their thoughts and PRAYERS,I always knew that anglers are special people. But when something like this happens it really shows. Between e-mails , post on this web site and phone calls I was over whelmed.
So with a complete life style change and the blessings from the Anglers and the Lord, I guess you will have to put up with this OLD MAN a little longer.
Again for my Family, wife Sara and myself I would like to thank everyone for your thoughts and prayers. Vern
