I know this is off the topic of Africa hunting and may be moved but wanted to let all of you know that Scott's (SBT) wife, Pam was in a single car accident last Friday and has undergone major back/neck surgery. Many of you have met Pam in Dallas and she is my favorite girl friend. She is recovering just fine so far but it will be awhile before she's back to her normal self. Her life was definately in jeopardy. Please extend her your well wishes!! Thanks, John | ||

For those of you who don't know her, Pam is the cat's meow! Dang! I'm glad that she's out of the woods! She's full of piss and vinegar and especially when she's with John's wife, everybody in the room is in trouble. Get well soon, my pretty lady! Will we see you in Dallas?

Prayers from here too! I don't know the lady nor her husband, but in this electronic community we have that does not even matter. We pull for each other all the time, especially when a bad turn comes along.  Jack OH GOD! {Seriously, we need the help.} | |||

Best wishes for a full and speedy recovery. 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! | |||

John, That is terrible news, we all love Pam, so give her a big kiss and hug from me and I'll give her another at Dallas. Ray Ray Atkinson Atkinson Hunting Adventures 10 Ward Lane, Filer, Idaho, 83328 208-731-4120 rayatkinsonhunting@gmail.com | |||

Pam is a heck of a woman. She outfished me on the Snake River one day. I am very sorry to hear this news. I do hope she makes a fast recovery. May she out-fish me again someday. | |||

John, Will keep Pam in our prayers and wish her a speedy and safe recovery!!!! Our best to Scott also... I can only imagine what his life has been like worrying about his better half. On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

Thanks everone for the well wishes and prayers. Pam's Durango slid on black ice, hit a roadside boulder and rolled. She ended up with with her C-4/5 being fractured, her C-5/6 being herniated, her vertabrae jumped and was pinching her spinal cord, and her vetribral artery was pinched off. Things weren't looking good. But, due to the skillful surgery of Dr. Joshua Beck (formerly of New Jersey), she will be good as new. The crash happended Friday morning, and she walked out of the hospital midday Monday. We have a lot to be thankful for. "There are worse memorials to a life well-lived than a pair of elephant tusks."

Wow. That doctor sounds like he is a real pro. It's hard to imagine her walking out of the hospital so soon. Very good to hear that. _______________________________ | |||

What great news! (the "walking out of the hospital" part) Glad to know that she's doing OK . . . Ya'll (that's Texas for "both of you") are in our thoughts and prayers. JDS And so if you meet a hunter who has been to Africa, and he tells you what he has seen and done, watch his eyes as he talks. For they will not see you. They will see sunrises and sunsets such as you cannot imagine, and a land and a way of life that is fast vanishing. And always he will will tell you how he plans to go back.

Yikes! I'm an x-ray tech and see some pretty bad fractures after car wrecks. Good thing it wasn't higher or she wouldn't have made it. Hopefully she was wearing her seatbelt which mitigated some of the damage. The surgeon sounds like he's a damned good one. You don't a bad one working on your spinal column. Good to hear she will be ok.
