Hello all,
I just wanted to give an update on myself and say thanks for all the prayers, it makes a differance.
I ended up with an infection throughout my body which required some surgery and a lengthy stay in the hospital unfortunately. I am on the meand and getting stronger every day but am still probably a few weeks from doing anything lutherie related.
I have an intense nap schedule that wears me out thinking about it
But in reallity I'm doing very well and and looking forward to joing in on the forum again.
Thanks once again.
Jim

Jim, glad your back. Those infections can be nasty so listen to your doctors and take it slow for a while.
