E-MAIL DICK DALE

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
