  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

a SHUTTERED DREAM... :( But there are others... ;)

Real sorry to hear that Ketch. May your immune response get better and better!

I have discovered that immune health is really influenced by the health and type of natural bacteria in your gut. And that by focussing on having a real healthy gut flora you can boost your immune system. E.g by taking the best probiotics etc.

Thanks Sam,

unfortunately my Immune system is super strong, and for this I have to take an absurd amount of Immunosuppressants to keep it down and not reject the transplanted Kidney,
for this the Immune system must remain down, and this is the real issue here, not having one to combat any introduce bacteria, especially Micro bacteria that leaves in water,
but I am undergoing special visits, and tests form some of the best available Scuba Specialized Sport medics, which will put me under some serious and rigorous specialized
tests and exercises to not only see the reaction by my body, but also the resistance levels of my Heart and lungs, to see how I react to pressure that I will be later exposed
when going deep, this way I can also see if at list it is safe to top a certain amount of depth, better some then none... ;)


Either way, I am not giving up this easy... I never do... ;)
 
Now I understand Ketch. Sorry for being slow on the uptake. That is really tough. You have to keep your immune system suppressed but that introduces all sorts of other problems. Must be a hassle for avoiding sickness on long stressful shoots.

I really hope that the specialized medics are able to work out a way of getting you under water!! Good luck!
 
Okay I just posted this....

I just saw it too.... Ketch, keep well, keep strong, and keep being that inspiration to so many! It's always been fun to meet you and see you at the studios and red events over the years.

Ketch, you're such a vibrant, dynamic guy, one would never guess the health battles you're fighting. You're an inspiration.

Thanks guys...

It pleasures me to know that I Inspire others, and that hopefully I bring them a small amount of comfort to their Pain, as they See that if I, with all that I have wrong with me, can do what I do, they can too!!

Unfortunately there is no much to get better form this conditions, as results continue to come in the same, and the fact of the forced Meds Cocktail doesn't allow the body to recover,
so I'm just getting used to it, and fight it as much as I can with the simple strength of the will to continue on, travel as much as I can, and see new parts of this wonderful World and the people in it,
while NEVER STOPPING PERSEVERING to FULFILL my DREAMS... ;)

Thanks Sam... I hope your words are heard LOUD and CLEAR!!

But my strength now comes from the fact that FINALLY I now have a camera that at last will help me tell my stories to look the way they were always intended to...
MAGNIFICENTLY REAL... ;)
