Default Hooray For Miracles

This brought a huge smile to my face when I read it this morning.

Default Wow That's the best gift anyone could get.

I hope his lives to be 100 so he can catch up on all he missed out on.

What a wonderful thing to hear! Mighty Mo has been taking care the boating community for a long time, and to hear that he's recovered his sight brought tears to my eyes.

As FLL would say,
"Three cheers for eye surgeon
Dr. William Marsh, of Wolfeboro."

Hip Hip Hooray!!!

Hip Hip Hooray!!!

Hip Hip Hooray!!!


P.S.- Now that Mo can see Mo, thought the rest of the Forum should be able to see Mo, too...

Default Lordie; I've seen the light!

Deb and I have known about Mighty Mo's improvement since this summer. We didn't wnat to spill the beans before he said so but the Citizen did that for us.

This sounds like a Mell Brooks line but when he got home for the first time he said to Hellen..."You never told me that my dog was white"! I kid you not, true story!

This year Bill and Hellen can enjoy the Christmas lights together for the first time in years. And don't worry! Mighty Mo will continue to be our EYES and ears on the Lake for many years to come.

Merry Christmas from Dave, Deb and the girls on Braun Bay.

Misty Blue.

Default Way to go Mighty Mo

Mighty Mo has helped so many people over the years. It is so wonderful to hear about his regained vision. Do you think he will get on the Internet now?

A good story but never, never don't see a doctor when you suspect somethings up.

And don't listen to them if they poo-poo you when you suspect something's up. My mother discovered she has macular degeneration too late because her opthamologist blew her off when she thought it odd that the window frames looked curved. Now she's legally blind.

It must have been tough to keep such good news quiet Misty. I never heard a mention of it on the VHF.

Funny story about his surprise at the color of his dog. Was Mo surprised to see that you were Misty Blue?

Here's hoping he gets to see many things for years to come.

That's a great line. Often times a single sentence tells you an awful lot about a person. This one sure gives me the impression that Bill has a great sense of humor. And if he was not trying to be funny it is still a perfect punch line. Thanks for sharing.

We always love hearing him when we are out on the lake! We are so happy for him! He was always very active, now can you imagine what he will be like. If I am not mistaken, and I may be, he used to go to almost all of the school board meetings! Can anyone verify that it was indeed him?
