I believe I stated before that my favorite pastime is spelunking.I can go w/whom I choose, rig those ropes and go where few people have or will go! I belong to a grotto, however because of some of the politics ext... I have a small, but absolute fantastic group of caveing comrads I cherish and rely on. Even though your a team and function together, there is a personal satisfaction and solitude that I get in these underground palaces. I also like people around me that have their act together. Only cavers can save cavers. This is my point. Can you see where I'm going? Only CH sufferers can help, understand, and sometimes save each other. That is what is so fantastic about this sight. I have yet to meet another CH person.{in 19 yrs.} I was quite astounded and delighted to find this sight. Quite preplexed that others suffer so. Today I mowed, I trimmed, I cleaned my hot tub, and didn't think about my 02 once. Yesterday I took my son mushroom hunting,dropped my daughter off at a prom function, and spent the evening at my brothers house working on a 56 chevy! AND DID NOT THINK ABOUT 02 ONCE! Could it be? could it be! I'm gonna go caving soon , the first time in over three months! When I get to that cave entrance, like Chris Farley in black sheep, I'm gonna turn around and scream "What the hell was that all about!" Then I'm going to yell " on rope" and then go baby go.Maybe naked. You all take care.
DJ,
What can I say? You have forever changed lifes, touched lifes, and accomplished more in a year, then some do in a lifetime. Now you hurt and I really can't help you. This is very frustrating for me. I have no advice, Not for "THE MAN". Because like it or not you are the man. Keep your modesty, I don't want it. You rule. You survive, You learn. You would be on my team, any day man. Hang tough.
I'll be thinking of you.
friends,
JerryLee.
