I wish you a very speedy recovery, Listen to the doctors and make sure to do EVERYTHING the physio therapist asks of you.

So sorry for your news John, I think I need to get out of this pen turning while I still have some health, what with you and Garno too....
I presume you're trying a dictating type / writing device?? they seem to have come a long way quickly....
All the best for a speedy rehabilitation mate, you know where we are:thumbs::thumbs:

Thank you for your support and your advice. I will be taking things a bit slower than before, but I will try and do a bit of Pen turning as I go on, but at the young age of 70, I have years ahead of me yet.

Hopefully the pen turning will be good therapy for you, John.
You do need to go easy as you have still another 30 years to the Big one.
