Congrats on your recovery, Alan. You'll be back in the thick of diving in no time

Way to go, Alan! Talk about timing...just this past weekend I was diving at Lake Murray and was reminiscing to my dive buddy (Islandfrog) that the LAST time I was there was with you and Timeliner. Fantastic to hear you're getting back underwater! Hope to see you soon.

That's wonderful news, Alan! Glad to hear it. I am looking forward to diving with you again sometime!

Also, I just looked back to some posts when you were first injured... Jan 9, Debraw posted "Alan currently is suffering from a head trauma, broken pelvis, collapsed lung, broken ribs, and multiple lacerations and bruises." And 6 months later, you're diving??? Alan, you are a miracle man! How fun is that...

Thats about 1/2 the list of injuries!!!! God//friends and of course prayers are a wonderful thing. Modern medical tech. and good medical staffers go a long way too. Will be starting off slow as recommended, but in time back to 'mixed' gas diving. Recreational diving which is what we all do anyways sounds just wonderful now!! Give me a set of flippers,,goggles and a swim suit!

I think I can say I understand even though it has only been about 3 weeks since my accident and my injuries werent near as severe but it will be some time before I will be able to dive I have a fractured arm and having problems with my knee dont have full range of motion back yet.

Sorry about your accident, dementid- I know it's very hard to be sidelined from doing things that you love. Hope you heal quickly and are back at the pond before you know it!!
