Most of us know of Doc Ed Ashby and some have been fortunate enough to meet the man.
He's been a big innovator in doing penetration testing and finding out what broadhead designs seem to penetrate best, through various mediums and such. Most lately, he's been part of the Extreme FOC with arrows and how the tiny feathers can stabilize well, in combo with EFOC.
Well, now we can give back to Doc. His last trip to the "Aussie bush" ended when his return trip caused something to go dreadfully wrong with his back. He's been pretty much laid up for weeks, maybe even a couple months now...He was hospitalized there, then to Phys. Therapy.
Nothing has helped. Best I can tell from notes I've gotten is that he's had to use a walker and can't go steps...still shooting 80# bow from a seated position on a chair...
:eek:
Today, he's off on a long painful drive to the airport in Australia for a flight to the US.
His military health insurance is not accepted over there. He has to come here to participate in the VA health system to get treatment since they can't find what's wrong over there and PT isn't helping!
He will be reportedly staying with OL Adcock since they know one another well, and OL has a single level home where there are no stairs and if I read it right, there is a decent VA facility near to OL's home.
Let's muster up some powerful prayers for Ed Ashby: For his flight home to be bearable and not worsen whatever is causing his problems, for the VA docs to find what's wrong and be able to get Doc back to 100% soon!
Prayers of thanksgiving for people like OL to help a friend in such a gracious way.
