Disabled List

No doubt the three of you who follow my fishing adventures on a regular basis must be wondering where I've been in the month of June.

Obviously, this fishing season is not what I had hoped for. Indeed, I still haven't caught a single fish. I've been occupied with work and a number of medical issues. Yes, I am one ailing fisherman. Through the pain and everything that comes with it (i.e. fatigue, depression, and a fear of what else could go wrong in my increasingly chaotic life), a glimmer of hope has emerged. Yesterday, I started a new treatment for a chronic illness that has dogged me for 10 years now. I thought it was under control, but I began to suffer a serious relapse last year. Along with the treatment, I'm trying to take better care of myself. So keep praying.

I do have some time off in July, and if I'm up to it, I may do some fishing.
