Deano,
You look good in the pictures -- are you sure that you had surgery or was this just a get-a-way with Mia? Hurry back - the boys need your money for the football pools.

You will be back in AZ before you know it.

Hi Dean,

Congratulations on your speedy recovery. I was there just a bit over two weeks ago. Only had one really bad night in the step down unit, otherwise recovery was amazing. Soon you'll be walking around the corridors!
