Yesterday, 4-21-10, my brother Lefty Dude, had his right kidney removed. He had a 5 cm tumor on it and they removed the entire kidney. The cancer was not in the bladder. "Praise the Lord"
He is in the Sun City West hospital.
I'll update as I get more information.

And as I hear more I'll try to pass along that info also.

Prayer for a quick recovery.

Guess he won't be answering the PM I sent yesterday anytime soon.

Anyone have his address so I can ship out some brass?
Maybe he can reload while healing.

Thank you God. Now heal him up and send back to us, please.

kimwcook · Post by **kimwcook** » Mon Apr 26, 2010 11:41 am

I suspect he's not moving around too much. I know after any number of surgeries I've had I'm not very sociable.

Lefty Dude · Post by **Lefty Dude** » Mon Apr 26, 2010 12:20 pm

Lefty's back !

Thanks to all for your thoughts and Prayers.

Y'all are the best !

Thanks Griff, for the cross-board forum post from the SASS wire.

As soon as the Doctor/Surgeon lets me drive again I will be at the Range with the Levers-in-hand. My Marlin 1905 model 97 22 will be the choice till I am healed. The scar is on my Right-side, being a Port-side shooter I should have no problem shooting on the Bench or Rifle Prone and standing.
The last few Months I finally found what 22's the Marlin 97 likes to digest. CCI standard-velocity is what the ole-Girl likes the best. Dicks SG has the CCI-SV for $24.99 a brick.
The Ole-Girl and I like to plink 12 ga. SG hulls, start out at 15-20 yards and bounce them for as far as we can hit them. Golf-balls are fun too.

I am fortunate to have Two Range's 20 minutes from my house. A private Club Range belongs to Cowtown Cowboy Shooter's Assoc. This is a short distance range with eight permanent CAS stages with steel targets always ready for practice or Matches. It's here I do the plinking. Distance is limited, however great backstops and open Desert is on Two sides.
The other Range is Ben Avery Shooting Facility. This is a World-class facility, from Air-Gun, Archery, Sporting Clays, Trap & Skeet to a Full 1000 yard big-bore NRA approved national match area.
If you are a shooter, this is the place to live.

Again, thanks all, it's good to be back .

You're more than welcome Lefty, someone else would've if I hadn't. Even tho' we've never met, I enjoy your posts (both here and on The Wire) and feel we'll get along famously when we finally do.

Glad to hear you're on the mend. Do as the Doc sez, enjoy some good rest.
