So I should go back a short time and tell what brought me to this point. In March of 2006, I got hurt. Quite badly. I took a bad fall and hurt my back in the worst way. I spent most of the next 5 years mostly in a hospital bed and when not there, in a recliner.
To make a long painful story as short as possible. One day my doctor changed my pain meds. I got enough control of pain to start moving again. I needed a lot of help for the first 6 months.
I had remembered laying in bed and thinking, If I have just one chance to get moving again, I will never stop. I will push everyday to get my life back. My friend Barbara Munn was my godsend. She put her life on hold and moved in to help. I could not have done it without her help. Thank you Barbara.
So I never asked for a miracle I asked for a chance to fight my way out.
So in mid April. I bought the Mast Confusion. A 33ft. Offshore cat-ketch. All that time I was laid up I decided If I got another shot at life I was going to quit dreaming about living aboard and go do it.
