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. -
