    John is a bad ass for sure!
    I first met him at our T.C.C.C class and he shared his story.
    John is a mounted Deputy that is why it was so important for him to keep his leg so he could continue to ride his horse.
    The man who shot John lost his hunting privileges for 5 years and had to pay some fines – that’s it.

    Great read and glad your buddy is alive. As someone who was supposed to lose their leg from an accident (pretty damn grateful they saved it), I honestly thought that I might have had mine amputated if I were in his shoes, that’s a hell of a recovery.

    Well written. I can relate to some of what he said from past personal medical emergencies. If I was as remote as he was, my chances of survival would have been greatly reduced. I'm pretty much of the understanding that when it's not "your time", it's not your time. When it is "your time", no wealth of medical equipment, knowledge, or skill can keep you in this world.

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.
