5 min readA Mass Appears: Godwin Heads for Surgery
Godwin has a mass in his shoulder. It showed up after he strained the muscle pulling his boat while shooting a bow. He noticed it one Sunday evening, thought it was just a strain, but by Monday morning it was "way bigger." The doctors brought in a live scope machine, put the transducer on him, and told him it wasn't fluid — there's a mass in there. They gave him an MRI stat. Now he's scheduled for surgery on the 25th. "They gotta take it out," he says. The mass goes deep, down under the muscle. It burns and aches, but he kept stacking firewood anyway because he wasn't going to let the young boys outdo him. Recovery will take about six weeks, and he's already thinking about how he'll hunt — maybe a crossbow, maybe a trip to South Texas or Mississippi.
