You guys just keep freaking me out to say the least.
You never know how much you matter in the big picture... I know now.
I have five radiation treatments left out of 40, a week off and then 18 weeks of chemo...plus another 20 1/2 months of assorted drugs
...all prescription of course.
THANK YOU GUY'S & GAL'S...someone may have to take ME fishing before the summer is over
...if I can't fish you could just sit me at the back and I could chum
BIG JIM....actually down one pant size already...I hope you realize what that represents...it's about one half of "Fat Luke"...

I'm real glad to hear your spirits are high Jim. That is the most important thing when going thru this. I will be one of the first ones to offer you a seat for a day of fishing(or chumming)
. I really hope you feel up to coming up here to Deep River this summer for our big tourney. You were a huge crown favorite last year and I don't think I could fill your shoes if I have to do it
literally. Keep your head up and we're all praying for you. Marty

All the best Jim. I've watched two of my loved ones go through the very same, and high spirits are what got them through.
Though you don't know me, I've enjoyed your articles for a long time. I'll be buying tickets for sure.
All the best
Bill

Hi Jim, glad to hear things are going good. As the other guys stated, high spirt and determination will get you over this speed bump in your life. Just send me an email or phone me and I will come down and take you out for a day on the lake of your choice or just out on the St Lawrence river if you wish. So keep your head up and maintain that positive attitude.
Cheers, Frank

I too will be buying 10 tickets, my wife is, both parents and a few others guys I know will probably do the same.
This'll be on top of my fellow MCI Brethren.
Keep your spirits high Jim!

Your Largeness,
If you are losing weight do we need to amend your name to "Not so Big Jim?"
We still haven't settled the Big Rideau World Bass Championship. I believe its a best of five, and the first round was a draw (dam russian judges).
We need to get out for round two. As others have said anytime anywhere!
Your friend

When we last spoke you had asked me to keep this to myself and being a man who keps his word I have been very quiet about all of this.
So I'll just say I was very eager and quick to donate a prize for the upcoming draw.
The wife asks for updates all of the time and I keep her informed.
We'll be seeing you soon because we'll be back in your neck of the woods again this summer.
