iluvtofly 0 #1 April 6, 2008 I'm sitting here at work, absolutly beautiful day out. The DZ is about 7 miles away. I can not only hear the jump plane climbing to altitude over where I work but I can also see it. Only 4hrs 13min until I can go and make my first jump of the season.

iluvtofly 0 #3 April 6, 2008 Turned out it was bronchitis. They put me on antibiotics and cough medicine on Friday and I feel a hell of alot better. The only sypmtoms I have now are extreme thirst and I think that's just from the meds. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vskydiver 0 #5 April 6, 2008 You've obviously never gone to altitude in a jump plane when you were congested. You may be redefining torture when you do. Have fun! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've jumped when feeling much worse then this. The thing is that the meds have completely broken up the conjestion so I'm not that worried about that.

thirdworld19 0 #7 April 6, 2008 Torture is when you've made your 1st 4 jumps - have become completely addicted - and then had to go back to live in another country where there are no (safe) jumps. I have to wait until I come back to the States to get my license. This is truly hell for me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
