I'm Philip's/micheal dilday's grannie.And no micheal was not drinking. He is doing a lot better,and is at home.He still has his tubes,and drainage bags.But is in good spirits.and i have noth'n against hunters,my sons hunt,as did my father-in-law,He was the best tracker in the tri/county.But you don't mix guns,and booze.As you don't drink and drive,if this guy had been driving a car and hit micheal,and did the damage that he did with his shot gun,he'd be in jail right now,with so many charges.But as i stated,micheal is "ALIVE" and improving every day.Oh,one more thing,this guy was told not to shoot,by the third person,while micheal was in the field.So why did he shoot anyway?"Because he was so drunk out of his mind,that he was beyond reason.Guns and whiskey,beer,just don't mix.stay home and drink,or go sober and hunt.But, micheal is going to have a long time to heal from the many shots that went into his body.But with prayers,and our love.Micheal will be ok one day. jeanie Dilday
