dick@dickdale.com
I want to personally thank all of you from my heart
for your heartfelt thoughts, your prayers and your support
with your letters and your calls.
It has been an interesting road of 6 weeks
monday thru friday every day
being hit with 3 jolts of radiation and chemotherapy.
I elected not take medicated drugs during this
venture and the road of pain was an interesting one.
I then rested for 6 weeks to be ready for the operation
and Dr. Gary Hoffman and his 2 fellow surgeons at Cedars of Sinai hospital
in Beverly Hills, Ca. endured a 8 hour operation with me.
I have been healing since April 4, 2008 and I am now preparing for another
testing before i go into the hospital November, 2008
for reconstructive surgery by Dr. Gary Hoffman.
This next operation is being set as i got the good news today
that the hole in my Colon has closed on its own.
You have asking in your letters and calls my status
and i felt it was now time to share with you as you
have shared with me.
I am still looking down at the grass and not looking up at the dirt.....ha
I will see you all in 2009
I thank you from the depths of my heart....
keep smiling
dick dale -- 8/13/2008
(NOTE)
As of today 10/30/2008
My 2nd operation for constructive surgery
is being appointed in the next two weeks.
keep smiling.... dd
