RE: Madder than hell at my wife and mother in law. Free hunt.
It is easier to beg for forgiveness than to ask forpermission. Get him to the side and tell him a good sneaky plan to get him out there. If he agrees, then go for it. It will also give him something to look foward to. Do not let the ladies make his decisions. Talk to him and let him decide. As a nurse, he needs things to look foward to and enjoy or he will give up. Personally,I'd rather go out happy than misirable.
