A NOTE FROM THE PHAT MANN FAMILY

[WAHOONBOX]

MANY OF YOU KNOW OF THE PHAT MANN....AN EAST COAST RIG WHO HAS MADE IT TO THE WINNERS CIRCLE A TIME OR TWO....THE PHAT MANN, A RIG DESTINED TO BE DEALT WITH WHEN IT COMES TO FLYING THE FLAGS....


I RECENTLY RECEIVED A NOTE FROM MARK AND AMY INFORMING ME THAT THEIR LIFE HAS SUDDENLY TAKEN A DIFFERENT PATH...AND I QUOTE MY FRIEND MARK HERE:

Hey Marty:

Thanks for your support in dc.
I would have loved to be there but me and Mrs Phat Mann, Amy, have begun a new fight. While you guys were there.


Last Monday, she went through Breast Cancer Surgery and we have a serious challenge ahead of us. The cancer has made it to the lymph nodes but surgery went well. No more surgery but we face anywhere from 16 wks of chemo to a year. Then radiation.

I am taking the Phat Mann to Fla to sell. We are now going to focus our efforts on living. Our fishing is our life and both go hand in hand. We wanna get back to fishing as soon as Amy's health and god willing business will allow.



"WE ARE NOW GOING TO FOCUS OUR EFFORTS ON LIVING"

ENOUGH SAID HERE.

I AM NOW ASKING ALL MY FRIENDS HERE IN DA WORLD TO SEND ONE UP EVERY DAY TO THE MAN UPSTAIRS....AND CONTINUE DOING SO UNTIL AMY IS BACK ONBOARD WITH HER HEALTH AND DOING WHAT SHE LOVES TO DO BY BEING OFFSHORE....

GUYS, THIS COULD BE YOU....THIS COULD BE ME...THIS COULD BE THE PONEYTAIL....LIFE IS SHORT AND LIFE IS SO PRECIOUS.

AMY....YOU ARE PART OF A HUGE & POWERFUL FLEET HERE....PRAYER IS STRONG....AND YOU ARE IN GOOD HANDS....GET WELL AND KEEP A SMILE ON YOUR PRETTY FACE

MARK....KEEP THE FAITH BRO....YOU AND AMY CAN SHARE THE PIT OF THE RUN-OFF WITH ME ANY OL TIME....


SENDING ONE UP @ 0900 @ 2100 HRS DAILY....

Amy and Mark - Prayers sent. My mother is approaching 10 years as a survivor. There were some tough times for a while but she fought like a champ - You do the same.

Spoil those grandkids.
