    A Star is Born

    Some people think they are tough, can drive faster than others, catch bigger fish, and run a marathon when their leg is broke in 3 places. Joe Lee has a 17 year old son named Seth. Seth is a very fine, soon to be HS Senior. This past week he was at my place for the Maxwell Rally. My little get together for testing and fishing on Allison boats. Seth ran his Dad's XB21 Bassport Pro wide open and did a fine job on several occasions. He caught a smallie that was all over 7 pounds, stayed up all night and never missed a cast, helped with anything he was asked to do, and only complained with a pain in his chest a little bit. Upon getting home in S. Alabama he finally relented to Mom and went to the urgent care in the area where he found out he had a collapsed lung. He was immediately hospitalized this morning. During the procedure to get the fluids off his chest so his lung could fill again he suffered an edema. (bleeding in the lung). He was transported by ambulance to another hospital where he was put in ICU till the bleeding comes under control. He's one of ours guys. Prayers for Seth are appreciated. His dad Joe is a pastor and so am I and we are not shy about asking our brothers in all walks to help us out. That includes our Allison brothers and sisters. Thanks for your prayers in advance.

    Jonney and Joe, I don't know either of you but sounds like Seth is quite a young man. Prayers sent from NM for a quick recovery. O ya, I almost forgot that I don't own a Allison.

    Thanks for posting this Johnny, I just logged on and read it. It's been a whirlwind and I haven't had much time to check the boards.

    We feel the prayers and I've read them all to Seth. He is a very blessed young man to have people that care about him all over.

    He thinks the world of you Johnny and all of "his Allison buddies". He had an absolute blast at the cabin/rally running Allisons and chasing bass. The big smallie was a lifetime moment for Seth, he'll never forget it! I must admit that I was asleep in the boat when he hooked her and I woke up when I heard him say, "Oh, that's a good one" LOL.

    Seth can drive my boat WOT and he absolutely loves it. He's been riding in and driving Allisons since he could climb in one.

    I'm sitting in the hospital with him right now and he tells everyone that comes in about the Maxwell rally, his Allison buddies and the fish he caught.

    The doctors and nurses are amazed that he had a collapsed lung for 4 days and only complained about a dull pain!

    Thanks again for all the prayers!
