Trad Gang signed shirt arrived!!!
« on: June 11, 2012, 08:49:00 PM »
Thanks to the Gang. Everyone who signed it, all those involved with getting it done,Tim, Doc, everybody ...thanks.
You see, I have not REALLY shot a bow since January. I've had some REALLY bad luck with my health. Not life threatening, but non stop. Herniated disks, pneumonia and now a torn rotator. All in 6 months. I have a new "special" Silvertip that has about 6 arrows through it. I got hurt right after getting it. I couldnt skin bows, do leatherwork, shoot...nothing. Like a hawk with clipped wings.
Soo, I've been pretty down. I havent been on Tradgang much, I read, but havent posted too much. I felt "lost". Out of the picture, and that is not a good feeling.
When I got the shirt today, I saw all the familiar names. I thought about every set of hands holding this very shirt. All for helping the kids.
I held it and it felt AWESOME. I feel awesome, I love this stuff. Every name is just as fantastic as the name before and after it.
I hold a tremendous appreciation for what went into this, and it has me feeling a bit on the "up" side.
Great bunch of people here, everybody give yourself a pat on the bow!  :notworthy:    :notworthy:    :campfire:

Awesome post David.  I know I got a similar feeling just being able to sign the shirt.  It really is a special community that we have here and it is made that way by folks such as yourself, I really wanted that shirt but got a little overextended on a few other itmes  :rolleyes:    :thumbsup:  I really am glad that it found it's way to you!

P.S. I am going through physical therapy right now and am looking at probable rotator cuff surgery myself so I can relate!

Signing it was the first thing I did once I got to Kalamazoo.  I'm glad it found a great home.

Bravo! Nice post.

Got to give it to David / Doc Nock!  He was wandering around Baltimore (BBTC) with shirt in hand.

I had a ball in Kalamazoo, and signing the shirt was part of it. The big thrill, for me, was wandering the hall with it, getting other folks to sign it. And everybody I approached was delighted to join in, from Asbells to Zipper!

That is a garment full of well-wishes, love and hope.
Wrap yourself in it, and know that we all are wishing for your triumphal emergence from this rotten run of luck.
And if it never ends, remember, you have friends!

And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

I am glad the shirt found a great home, it is amazing the amount of support this place has. And save some money this year for what will be next years ST.Jude project(gonna get it out early this time). And thank you to all who helped with this project.Tim
