Wishing Mac Well

I just got a note from Dugaboy1 (Mac) that he was going in for cancer treatment on his vocal chords. Mac is a long time poster and pal of many on this forum (hard core double rifle nut) and I know many of you would want to wish him well.
I think Mac is going to feel like a "dirty bore" for awhile but hopefully a good cleaning will make him shine and back on target!
Better tomorrows Mac.

You can borrow money but you can not borrow time. Go hunting with your family.

Mac:

We only met once, but from all of our conversations on AR, I consider you a friend.

I'm sending the Big Man upstairs some prayers for you, my friend.

If there is anything we on AR can do, please let us know.

Mac,

I wish You a fast recovery.
Your vocal cords need some Hoppes elite cleaner, sadly there is none in France.

We have either red or white stuff, sparkling champagne apart. Please say your (shooter's) choice. Nothing beat it for a fast and complete recovery.

I wish You the best.

Mac, I wish you all the luck and providence in the world. With God's grace, you'll have a quick recovery and be back with us quickly.

I was in a safari camp in Botswana one time and the ladies working in camp sang a beautiful hymn in Setswana. The lyrics were along the lines of, "Thank you God for bringing him home to me" (no, they weren't singing to me). Now, I always think of that melody when someone comes home from an arduous journey. I'll hum the tune to myself when we hear good news from you.

I know Mac to be a kind and gentle person as anyone would want to have as a friend. I also know he's a scrapy fellow in a fight!

Bless their hearts, this ain't Mac and Claire's first time in the ring! They both are in our thoughts and prayers.
