[Fists] Re: W2LJ apologies re: KN0WCW/2

[Steve W0OOW]

Indeed family does come first.  I hope that your son is fine.  Also, maybe
someday he will grow up to understand how his accident put traffic on this
reflector :)  Very little seems to come across anymore.  Sounds like he is
recovered for the most part. See/hear you in July!

> Today was my day to operate as KN0WCW/2.  As I was setting up the
Buddipole and K1 in the backyard, my 3 year old son had an accident where he
tripped and fell.  Normally no big deal; but a small pebble got lodged
underneath the skin of his forehead.  My wife (an RN) could not get it out;
so this necessitated a trip to the local ER.

piece of pebble under the skin and made a small incision and got it out.  He
was considering leaving it there; but was worried about infection, so he
opted to remove it. After the bleeding was stopped, some Dermabond (skin
crazy glue) was applied instead of stitches.  My son is now home, running
around like nothing ever happened; but Dad is somewhat, shall we say spent
... shot .... played out?

today during my efforts as KN0WCW/2 on July 4th and 5th.  I apologize to any
of you who were looking forward to working KN0WCW from New Jersey - but I'll
make up for it and be on the air that much more over the 4th of July
weekend.  Again ... my apologies; but family comes first !
