Hey Baby,
I hope this message finds you well, and continuing your journey of becoming the person you wish to be. Nothing new here on planet DeWitt worth while. I went to a meeting at Shanes shop last night, it was Shane, Billy W., Shauwn Huspeth, Micheal and me. Not Micheal tibit but a new guy that's over quality control and we're making a new employee handbook. Anyway it ended about 830pm and me and micheal stayed behind to have a couple of beers, and I sampled about six different flavors of moonshine, it was cool. (my daddy died when I was three, Mamma did'nt bounce me on her knee, Grandpa and grandma done pasted on, that girl left me all alone, my wife took off after our first child, my kind of honky tonk bars was'nt her kind of style, So I had to learn took look them in the eyes and not to feel, all of the sudden my friends started calling me the man of steel, My friends all call me superman round mucle shouders and upper and LORD I do'nt know what I'm going to do, looks like the man of steel done got the blues)

Makin Island is on its maiden deployment and conducting operations in the U.S. 7th Fleet area of responsibility in support of the Navy'Äôs Maritime Strategy. Makin Island is the Navy'Äôs newest amphibious assault ship and the only U.S. Navy ship with a hybrid electric propulsion system.

below this messae is an article I found on the internet. how to get well.
Bracing or casting the limb with a hard plastic boot or air cast may also prove beneficial by taking some stress off the stress fracture. An air cast has pre-inflated cells that put light pressure on the bone, which promotes healing by increasing blood flow to the area. This also reduces pain because of the pressure applied to the bone. If the stress fracture of the leg or foot is severe enough, crutches can help by removing stress from the bone.
