Sorry to hear that camedown...You are correct....It's brutal. I have two guys in my HG that started the same time I did..Became pretty close to them..They just didn't want to put in the effort...Both went back out and I don't know if they'll make it back or not. They are not doing well. You have to remain vigilant...A guy with 28 years told me that...I listened. Work your 10-12 everyday and practice...practice...practice. Sorry again about your friend.....It's sad to see what this disease can do. And yet the tools are right there before you.....Keep trudging!
