Hi guys,

Just got out of surgery and begining to worry about when I can get back on the water.....Possibly still got morphine residue in veins as well so i realise it may be a "little" early.

Effectively had to have an incisional hernia repaired running down centre of stomach - 14 inches long. Caused by previous surgery.

My surgeon reckons a minimum of 3 months off the water...I nearly cried like a baby.

So, my question is, has anyone else had major surgery and gone back to kiting in less than 3 months or is it just a case of letting your body tell you when the time is right?

In the meantime - there will be a kite bitch available for use on the stkilda and altona beaches regularly until I may set sail into the land of faceplants once again!
