Smile Back in the water 25th Dec 07

After my rather nasty bend back in October, I went through a range of emotions and thoughts, i.e. should I dive again, given how horrible it was did I want to dive again, should I have a PFO check etc. etc.
Having spoken to a hyperbaric doc I trust, I decided a PFO check was a waste of time, so that was one query out of the way. Then just a question of 'to dive or not to dive'.
This morning wife (Mary) and I took ourselves off to Babbacombe beach and had a nice quiet bimble for half an hour or so.
Nothing much to see, viz wasn't wonderful, water wasn't very warm, but hey, I was back in the water and it was great!
Here's to next years diving

Hope everyone is having a Christmas as fun as the one I'm having and wishing all a Happy New Year.

Roy

That's fantastic news Roy, and all your thought/emotions could have been mine from 18 months ago.

Good luck for your continued recovery and I hope your diving confidence grows, IME there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Safe diving,
Steve
