Thank you all. It is having blessed friends like the C Brats which helps us all thru those bumps in life!
My dad belonged to a small paper yacht club in Long Beach most of his life, I joined at age 15, and was a member until I left S. Calif at age 56. It was an extended family of dedicated small boat sailors who took care of each other. I see the C Brat community is akin. Even though I belonged to some fancier yacht clubs, I always raced under the burgee of the small paper club. I looked up that club's current dues: $125 a year. Some of my friends sons and daughters are now in the club. A club anyone can belong to.
I just got back from follow up from the Cardiologist who did the procedure in S. Calif. I have go ahead to start rehab (formal when I get back in Pensacola--will begin some walking around Santa Monica.) Hope to get strength back to be able to use the C Dory again: #1 goal!
