It's true, Franc. Without health, we have nothing. Few understand how tenuous life is. Losing our health or experiencing and empathizing for the misery and lost hopes of others, seems the least understood of the vicissitudes and vagaries of our existence. It doesn't seem fair.
I'm sorry for your wife and you. I'm grateful that you've provided a poignant reminder at this time of the year that the gift we want to give is often not for us to give under any circumstances, leaving us bereft and lonely with hope, a wish of something better for our loved ones and others.
Thank you, and God bless.

I wish that Hillary Clinton, Dianne Feinstein and Sarah Brady would curl up and die-and soon.

nca225. I'll second that. It makes the Woodward O/U, the Aston Martin and the perfect gun dog pale into insignificance. Best wishes to your wife Franc. Lagopus.....

Franc, material things are just that, one's health is the most important. Stranger things have happened. God Bless.

I have the best wishes for those of us who have self or close loved ones in poor health. I am not doing so well myself, but my neurological and spinal condition is probably not fatal. At 70, my wishes in cars and guns have been fulfilled. I have a 460 cubic inch wood sided Ford in high condition, and I finally found my field choked (full and full) Parker .410. I would like to know about the power plant in Chuck's Camaro.

Simple. New Orvis Strap vest. My old strap vest is falling apart. I'm hard on vests. That and to get my 11 month old Lew into some birds somewhere. This is like trying to hunt Bigfoot here in Va.

My wish for this Christmas is that Franc and Stan get theirs.
Merry Christmas to all.

When I was younger Christmas was all about me and what I might want. Now I know Christmas is really not about me and getting, but what I can give. I truly believe God gave us a savior that long ago time that we can all have eternal life. What more could you want??? Merry Christmas to each and all!
