I POST THIS W/ PERMISSION FROM CARLSON1. I post it here by choice & hopefully the vast majority of our regulars will come to it. It is gun related because the last post from Carlson was about his LEO contact in ER & his carry pistol being discovered by a nurse. He had surgery following that, has been home & then back in the hospital w/ complications from the surgery. He is home now but not doing real well. Will go to a heart rehab center for a while. He needs the prayers of all our praying folks & SEVERAL CHEERFUL PM's from any who would send them. He is struggling but improving. To end it arms related - He will return to the range to shoot the new 9mm after he recovers completely :thumbsup: . By God's grace & w/ the encouragement of the men & women of this forum he will do that soon & completely. Let's get busy guys & gals.

He is at home now RP. On his original post he left the name of the Hospital & LEO name out. Home now though.

This is Mrs. Longtooth. Ladies, please pray for Mrs. Carlson1. To keep this gun related, I carry a Baretta .32 Tomcat.

I appreciate the effort to keep things gun related, but it's not necessary when it comes to the health of one of the "family members." Martha and I will continue to pray for him and will keep him on the prayer list at Church.

Regards,
Chas.

Thank you for all of the kind words and prayers. I will let you know how the recovery goes. This is my third heart attack, but my worse. Thank you for thinking of my dear wife. She has really been through it. We have been married for 21 years and she has stayed by my side even in ICU.

Isn't it nice when "In sickness and in health" really does mean it? Nice to have a great woman by your side.

I was amazed that Baylor allowed her to stay 24 hours in ICU with me. In 21 years we have only spent 1 night apart. The last 15 years we have worked together and have spent every waking hour with each other. I am blessed when I was younger I dated some girls that I could not have spent that much time with. Rehab is going to allow her to stay here also. She is my friend, my lover, and the one who keeps me calm. She carries a Glock 26 and sometimes a 19. She loves the range. I AM THE MOST BLESSED MAN IN THE WORLD! :grin:
