Brit is Back!

Sep 14, 09 10:24 PM

As some of you may have heard, I was involved in a severe car accident on July 18th, 2009 - resulting in a broken femur, fractured pelvis and a bruised right lunge. Fortunately, after several weeks of healing time I am on the road to a full recovery! Since being out of the game I apologize for any comments that have gone unanswered. I look forward to seeing and playing with all of you at some point on the site. I’ve received many warm wishes and especially love this quote a fellow poker play sent me:

Life is short, Break the rules, Forgive quickly, Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably, And never regret anything that made you smile…

In addition, if you haven’t checked out the new VIP Rewards page now is the time! Simply, click on the VIP Rewards tab located next to the Promotions tab. View what rewards you already have, PLUS see what rewards you could gain by upgrading your membership.

Talk soon,

Brit

"cast all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you " 1 Peter 5.

Brit -our lives on this world are but a vapor --so be like Job (13.15) -Though he slay me, yet will I trust Him " he said --His attitude is an inspiration to us 4,000 years later
--Just be grateful for more time here to show HIs love --I did --I was killed in an accident in 1970 and brought back by med

Poker britt, loved your comment on how to view life. Unfortunatually there are people here who play at spadeclub that overuse the term donk. It might be nice to inform them that donk or donkey is actually a very smart animal smarter than a horse in fact. Players in general be pro's included from time to time will and do make bad calls part of the game. Anyway good to hear your getting better and live your life as you said in your quote i have and the ride is great. looking forward to meeting you

Terrible, terrible, terrible or as they say en français "très terrible".
Seriously I'm very sad to hear about this TERRIBLE accident, but relieved that you are on the road to recovery.
It seems that it could have not happened to a nicer person.
We ( I ) missed you and looking forward to chat with you at the poker table. Regards and get well "soonest".

Hi Brit.
Hope you're fully recovered and active as you should be. If I wasn't so familiar with AARP and McD's senior coffee I'd try to do more than what I can say here with you. Yeah yeah yeah! I can still think about all the great times I've had and look foreward to those ahead. Really wish we were neighbors. I went Christmas Caroling by myself the 24th. Had a terriffic time. take care Glen

it isn't what happens TO us, but rather what happens INSIDE us that makes us who we are. a new friend saying you must be pretty awesome because i see a lot of positive comments written about and for you.
