Warm thoughts of reclaiming health for your ill friend as I sit on a cold mountain (20 degrees).
Perseverance, decent health care, belief and patience.
He sure can!! I will never regret getting him his first board when he was 6 years old! I could watch him skate alllll day. (Not to mention, I think he is really cute) ;)
When I was about his age I skated all the time, then stopped for about ten years. Decided to get back into it and I don't remember it hurting so bad. Haha, I guess when your body serves as the shock absorber it should hurt. Skate or die! Hope he sticks with it cause he's got the gift.

I'm glad you're getting back into it, Just In. It's a sport that intimidates the crap out of me!
I suspect Pickle will stick with it... Not to mention he is an artist and would love to design boards and such. I told him I wanted to Trademark "Pickle Art" for use in the future as he continues to find his artistic voice.
Here is one of my favorite montages of Pic skating....
Had to hang mine up at 17 due to a chronic sprained ankle as a result of skating. To this day just one ollie and i am all done...
Shoulda know as a kid i could never ever do anything conventional. Skateboarding was the beginning of my life long love affair with a love of all things subculture.
Pic is 20 and 1/2 years of age... and awesome.
I am so in love with that fellow human being
and feel blessed to have been a formative figure in his life...
Mom.
Again, I will never regret getting him a board at such a young age.
I could watch him skate all day.
Pickle is the one in the cute beanie cap ...
(yep)
