    2017 is not off to a good start,but will get better

    Just before new years my toyota trans screwed up and rolled down a little hill and into the creek, 12,000 dollars damage, is in the shop to be repaired. Jan 7 2017 mom fell and broke her right hip, one year ago she fell and broke the left. Dec. of 2016 Dad passed away so dealing with all the ins co. death ben. This morning my wife fell and broke her right fibia, the big bone in the upper leg, surgery in the morning.
    I will be on and off here for a week or two but will update as I can.
    Thanks for thoughts and prayers guy and ladies. Been though things like this it just makes one stronger.
    Did meet 2 guys on the ambulance that also shoot, ambulance / police combo's great guys.

    When you find you are in deep trouble, look straight ahead,keep your mouth shut, and say nothing.

    Sorry to hear. I myself have been diabetic for my whole life. Have had multiple major issues with it. I started the end of Dec through the new year in hospital, had have a toe amputated due to a Staph infection that just took off, even after being under the care of a trusted doc. Still home can't walk yet.
    My point is you just have to keep looking forward, you can not let yourself look backwards.
    My thoughts and prays are with you and your family. It DOES get better.

    To all others on this forum. Happy New Year!

    Yes pray things improve.

    Femur is in the upper leg. Fibula and tibia are found in the lower leg.

    Sorry to hear about your woes. Hard to deal with so much in such a short time our thoughts are with you. I shoot with a guy that is a fibia at least that how we say it up here. He's always telling fibs.

    Last year was my bad year, time and some good folks helped and many didn't even know they had helped. Life is hard an we never know what is going to happen to us next.
    Keep looking up and we will have your back if needed

    Try to stay positive. What helps me is when I say, many times, "No more than you can handle." Then I realize I can handle it.
