Dave's Upcoming Knee Surgery


THANK YOU to everyone who has been concerned about Dave, his upcoming knee surgery, and his pain level.  He has met with the surgeon twice, and has had an MRI on both knees.  One definitely has a torn meniscus, so will need surgery.  It was scheduled for mid October, but he asked to be put on a wait list if something came up sooner.  He will now be going in for surgery on Monday, October 12.  Please keep him in your prayers.  These last two weeks of shows has been extremely painful for him, and our thanks go out to everyone who helped, and to Will Alexander for agreeing to show Varias at the BRTCA Nationals.  It was all Dave could do to get around the ring with him the few other times that he had to show him because no one else was available.  But as you know, being a handler, as with many other professions, if you don't work you don't get paid and the bills still keep coming in.  Dave will be heading East for Morris & Essex, so if anyone can help him get around the show grounds, that would be great.  You know, he is Canadian, so will say "It will be OK."  All the while limping on a swollen leg.  I will try to keep you posted.  THANKS AGAIN. - darlene
