Please add some special prayers tonight to be carried eastward along with the smoke from your cigar in intercession for the successful surgery and recovery for our dear friend, Billy Smith.
He undergoes his 2nd major surgery within a week having just completed an unbelievable 9 Hour operation a few days ago !!

God Speed Billy --- That cloud of smoke coming your way from the West is filled with all and only the best wishes of your Brethren from back home.

HOOAH !!!!

X,

Major back surgery. Needed because of the abuse his body took in serving our great country for many years!

Mega Hooah Billy!

It's difficult to imagine what he's going through. Billy seems like a wonderful person. I've had the opportunity to exchange emails with him and trade with him on several occasions. I surely hope he comes thorough this with flying colors and that he experiences a dramatic improvement in his back conditions.

Stop and think about it for a second. Have you ever had a problem with your back? I have. It hurts “to breath”, you can’t get into or out of you car without severe pain. Trying to sleep is no picnic and forget about trying to take a good dump… In fact, back problems make almost every aspect of your life unbearable.

Yet Mr. Smith always seems up beat rather than beat up. He’s always pleasant, always positive, always encouraging. I believe this speaks volumes for his character. It would be so easy for a lesser man to succumb to the anxiety brought about by persistent, nagging, intense pain…

True character is never shown in times of plenty and prosperity. To know the true measure of a man is to see how he handles adversity, and Billy has obviously shown he is a top notch individual. He serves his country, continues his education, recently applied for and won a new job/advancement.

He deserves to pull through this with no ill effects, with a quick recovery, and with a dramatic improvement in his condition.

Best wishes and Gods speed Billy.

Robby is right on the money about Billy!

Ever inch of that man's body is filled with generosity. You can see it in his trades, and luckily I have traded with him on several occasions.

Billy, get well soon my brother.

That was great Robby!Very nice bro.
I have had 4 back surgeries,all before the age of 35,and do understand alot of what is going on with Billy.I know in my heart that this man will come through this like a champ.He is a veteran for christ's sake and it will take more than this to bring him down!!
Billy,
There is a cloud of smoke coming your way from the state of Indiana in your honor tonight!
God speed

I have 2 messages sent to Frau Smith since Thursday - have not had a reply yet????

I'm sure they are very busy with taking care of the household and running back & forth to the hospital - very little time for the forum-- I am not reading anything bad into not getting any news.

Let's just all keep on sending those prayers and good wishes to our friend Billy until we hear the good news that he is on his way to full recovery...

"Rangers Lead the Way" Billy....Hooah !!
