#42808, "I won't be making Mel Cotton's after all...."
Looks like I can't make this one after all due to recent health issues. I just got out of the hospital yesterday for diverticulitis with a small perforation. This means that bacteria leaked into my abdominal cavity, never a good thing. I'm on antibiotics that make me very susceptible to sun burn and right now have pretty low energy. I also missed four days of work last week and am way, way behind. As an aside I was very fortunate to get a really good doctor when I went to urgent care. I have other, less serious issues that could have accounted for my symptoms but this gut wouldn't give up until he KNEW what was wrong. It took over 8 hours of testing and diagnosis to sniff it out.
I already paid my entry so will "donate" it to the winners. I pretty much do this every time I fish a tournament anyway, the only difference this time is that I am skipping the fishing part of it.
