I'm very sorry to hear this. Sometimes taking a break from physically demanding activities is necessary and I hope you can continue making knives in the future (even if it's not as fast as you're use to). Just keep in mind, that any knife you make with this handicap will be that much more rewarding. It reminds me of a guy that use to run marathons and during one of his runs, his legs went numb half way in. Sure, he had every right to quit, but he continued on running until he finished. He considers it one of his greatest runs, not because he came in last place, but because he over came the extra challenge and completed the run. Sure, anyone can run a marathon or make a knife, but very few have the guts and courage to do it with a handicap, and in that you will find it that much more rewarding. I pray that the break you need to get your health straightened out is a short one. Good Luck!
