Rhyme of the Sheep Hunter
May fordings never be too deep, And alders not too thick; May rock slides never be too steep And ridges not too slick.
And may your bullets shoot as swell As Fred Bear's arrow's flew; And may your nose work just as well As Jack O'Connor's too.
May winds be never at your tail When stalking down the steep; May bears be never on your trail When packing out your sheep.
May the hundred pounds upon you Not make you break or trip; And may the plane in which you flew Await you at the strip.

ledvmRight after he took his buff in Uganda...he started feeling bad. They thought it might be his heart and maybe it was but the report I got was that it was not major.

L. David KeithI have an update from Donna. Craig is doing OK after suffering a heart attack. He was in Ghana and had just taken a Royal Antelope. Started feeling bad so he went to the hospital and was misdiagnosed. Decided to cut the hunt early and head home. I'm glad he did. He's recoving in ICU and thanks all for the well wishes. I will keep you updated as much as possible.

I'm sorry to hear you're not well, but am glad you're back in the States recovering, and wish you all the best!

L. David KeithThis mornings update from Donna: "good morning and thank you once again for all of your prayers and well wishes. I'm here with Craig @ the hospital and he is doing remarkably well... eating reading. ready to leave....but they won't let him leave yet! and I think that's a good thing...he needs to stay put for a while....still in ICU but I think they may move him out of ICU today if he keeps up the good work... he's actually being pretty good patient.."

eyedocPrayers lifted for a speedy recovery. Craig looks to be relatively young and fit so this should serve as a warning to all of us to be aware that no one is immune from illness, particularly cardiovascular disease.
Hope to hear that Craig is back on the trail real soon.
We seldom get to choose
But I've seen them go both ways
And I would rather go out in a blaze of glory
Than to slowly rot away!
