With the averge age of the kneeboarder these days this area should be used to post issues on health matters (surfer's ear, knee surgery, stretches, etc).

Early reports say that Joel Mayer had a possible heart attack last night and is in Tri Cities hospital in O'side.
Curtis Odom will be updating with more info when available. Please keep him, his family and friends in your thoughts today.

I'll be praying for Joel. He's been an O-Side fixture for more years than I can remember and a felow kneelo.
Thanks for the news.

I spoke with Joel last night. He seems to be doing well and confirmed that he would be discharged from the hospital this weekend. Says he's excited to get out of the hospital and get back into the water.

I just talked with Joel, he is doing fine and is being checked out of the hospital at noon by his sister.
Never leave well enough alone.

I spoke to Joel yesterday, and he got a good scare, but will be Ok.
First thing he said was "Time to start surfing more, smoking less."
Music to my ears, and a life lesson for all of us.
Get well soon, Joel... See you in the line-up soon.
