Hi Kamala and Crew. Just saying hello, have not abandoned S.D. but as Kamala knows have been running into some Issues, that have left me unable to dive since Roatan in Oct 2012.
Still dealing with the hip issues, but working on the recovery now and curing a Infection i have had since having a Hip revision in Dec 2013, that was suppose to take care of the problems of the org. DePuy hip replacement, I received in Dec. 2010. Well had to have all the parts taken out Oct 20 and rehab hospital for two weeks. I'm now home just killing time taking I.V. antibiotics 3 times a day to cure the infection, with out a hip joint. What does not kill you just makes you stronger! I'm at home taking care of my self, getting around the house, cooking some as usual. Giving my self the I.V. and other injections, i have to do to kick this infection in my body in the butt.
If all goes will I will receive a new hip joint assy on Dec 16, will find out for sure when they do a hip aspiration and run Blood work and infection makers. So for my 60 birthday I hope to be back home and going to P.T. several hours a day and on the road to recovery , I hope to get to return to running my business and my life by the end of Feb. and if able get back to diving and seeing old friends I have met here during the past 9 years.
So will try to get back on line and post some since , i'm at home killing time the next few months. Hope to see some of your on a trip or underwater again soon.Posted Image

Welcome back Sonny! I've been following your tribulations on FaceBook but wanted to add my 2 Psi to this thread. I hope you get well soon and can get back in the water soon. Keep us up to date on how you're doing. Get well soon!

Hang in there Sonny. Tubing is fun, but not quite the same as diving. Hopefully you will recover quick and be back in the water.
