Helping out...

This week we are in Tampa for a couple of reasons. 

1- The weather in Stuart hasn't been conducive for fishing.
2 - We have several important appointments (some of which include hair and taxes).
3 - Frank is taking a long-time friend for his radiation treatments.

Frank has known Chris since they worked together in Naples.  They both share a love for FSU and BUCS football as well as fishing and being on the water!

But about a month ago, Chris was diagnosed with Stage 3 throat cancer.  After testing and biopsies, his treatment plan was put in motion - full speed ahead!  Home is Tallahassee with the family and treatments are in Tampa.  

This week, Frank is Chris' personal driver and chat buddy.

A couple of weeks ago, we were inspired by something Frank's S-I-L put together for her neice going through chemo treatments.  Chris is a pretty straight-forward kinda guy.  But we were hoping he would get a chuckle out of this and also share with others who might be in his same situation.

No explanation needed!
