When all of this is behind me, I'll spend some time with Greg at the Hombu to shake the rust off and see if the floor will accept me back! **Proof is on the floor!!!

Nidan Melbourne Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I can totally understand why your having to step down from your roles at the school. We are here to support you Sensei8 when you need it. So you are not alone in the MA world. I am sure Patrick is going to keep you on board for all your hard work on the Forum. And that being a moderator will keep your spirits up. Taking the break as recommended by your doctor will probably make your karate even stronger. Don't give up hope

JohnASE Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Best wishes for a speedy recovery, Bob. Karateka are no strangers to pain, so for you to step down, your symptoms must be extreme indeed. It's great hearing that you expect to return. Ganbatte!! John - ASE Martial Arts Supplyhttps://www.asemartialarts.com
