    Good news gang and figured I'd fill in my friends here on the hide that are not on facebook. Had my 1 year MRI, Xray, and doctor visit a couple weeks ago and he said "there are no signs of the tumor on my C6 & C7 spinal cord"! I'm still unable to shoot prone due to my fused neck and might never be able to shoot prone as I can't cock my head back enough due to the 2 ~7" titanium bars & 12 screws & front neck fusion as they remove a good potion of my spinal bone column, but I can still shoot from a bench :) Strength is really coming back in my right arm and I did my first push up a couple months ago! Doc said he thinks its ok to move my follow up exams from 6months to 1years! So far, so good and is better than the alternative :)

    Fuckin' A, man! That's some great news! If you ever make it down to East Tx, I've got some hogs with your name on 'em.
     
    Holy sh** Elfster... been ages since we had an update on our 'bro!

    Since the alternative is staring at the lawn from the wrong side... this is great to hear!

    Welcome back, Am-ee-go!

    This is the best thing I've seen in ages!

    Cheers and keep up the good fight!

    congrats on the good news!
    It was 1year on sept 9th that I had surgery (C4-C7 fusion) from a car accident and the bastards managed to kill me and bring me back in surgery. It sucks to try to shoot prone.
     
    That is great news. Thank you for sharing this happy update. In so far as the prone shooting, just look at it as a chance to perfect your positional, tripod and improvised positions. Keep pushing your self, but not too hard, make sure you have fun.
