Would appreciate everyone thoughts and Prayers.

Thanks for the update, Ray.

I wish that it was better news.

Have you considered help from the Mayo Clinic? From what I understand, they are the best there is. Especially in addressing the kind of issues you are having. Seriously - I would reach out ASAP!

You will remain in my/our prayers my brother.

Hang in there!

Love you so much!

I am definitely praying for you my friend. You are always in our prayers as the SEC family. This sports board forum is one of the best I’ve ever experienced and that is coming from a rival Vol fan. I certainly hope you get to experience another season of college football.

I pray the best for you and your family, and that God‘s will would be done in your life.

 

We are fortunate to have SEC brethren visit this site and offer up prayers and blessings. The heartfelt commanradere, and well-wishing are comforting to read.

Often-times peoples suffering is frustrating, we can't turn a switch and make them better. But we can help those we care about by directing our prayers.

My faith offers me comfort, I know the Lord's outreached arms are there for me when it's my time...Although, I'm not rushing towards the light just yet!

Ray, may the Good Lord soothe your pain. Hang in there Gator. Breathe in his love.

Blessings

Go Gators

 

as we age our balance gets iffy and our ability to do the things we used to do with ease becomes much more difficult - I fully understand why you went for the walk and also why you tired more easily. I am still keeping you covered in prayer Ray

 

Sorry to hear that, Ray. Yeah, probably need to do walking with your younger brother for a while. Concrete, skin and bone don't go well together when falling. Early mornings walks only with this hot weather. It's a shame, an otherwise decent morning got fouled up with a fall. The good news is they sent you back home. You're fortunate it wasn't worse!!

As you know too well, as we age our balance is really compromised. When we are in an infirmed state and have been conveleasing for a while we are weaker. When we feel good for a minute after suffering, we are also are motivated to shake all of this off and enjoy a nice walk. The unfortunate reality is we get a false sense of health and vitality. Good memories in our brains send us out on a journey and the perils of the mobile world can set us up for more problems.

See if you can have someone take you out on occasion. Once or twice a week. That way you have a companion and you can lower the probability of more injury.

All this is obvious, but I think Clint Eastwood said: "A mans got to know his limitations"...

Anyways, I know I'm not sharing any great 'sage' advice here, but just concerned for your well-being!

Heal up Gator!

Go Gators.

 

Ray, I rarely get on the board any longer and even when I do it's a quick check for something or another.

I happened to see this thread just now. God love you, bruh, and I'll be praying for you down there in Imperial Polk County.

 

Love ya, Ray!

 

Blessings, Ray. Be well.

 

You’re a tough ol booger. Keep going but maybe wear a helmet, a gator helmet.

 

My prayers to you Ray on this Sunday. Simply that you would have peace while you are healing, and that your will and desire to fight will stay strong! God bless you Sir

 

Happy Father's Day, Ray. Whether you have kids or not you're a Gator fixture of 'Dadness' on this site. Be strong, use the handrails, walker and cane. Balance isn't a given. Be weary of overconfidence when walking.

(I'm sure you know) Ray, Gator football is on a recruiting tear about now. All great news. Linebackers up the Wazoo! Let's hope the Baseball team can beat up on Oral Roberts later today.

The Good Lord is shining down on Gator Nation.

Blessings to you, Ray.

Go Gators.

[QUOTE="malscott, post: 15247313,]
Well put, Malscott…..we are all getting a bit older and the body will NOT listen to our far more youthful and enthusiastic heart and passion. Get well, Ray….your sage wisdom here kept THIS 72 year old Gator enthusiastic when my own body would not cooperate. Take the love, respect, and encouragement from the fellow Gators who have received so much from you, sir!

 

Always good to hear from you Ray. May Jesus continue to watch over you!!

 

Praying for your recovery!!!

 

Miss seeing you post Rattler, but I understand.
