You are a cool dude, Doc. Let's have the first annual Lomas Del Mar Pacifico party (with Dennis' consent of course) to celebrate his return to Punta
Banda. Once he gets past this hurdle he will want to relax and enjoy, I am sure.

Yeah, it had the potential. . . But
It looks like it's going to a new high - more restraint, less info being given out, limiting visitors, etc. Kudos!,
In my experience, if this happened to my immediate family, after profusely thanking a visitor for the visit, every visitor will be screened, given
instructions what they can say and cannot say, examples to say and do, etc.. . Comply or they will be escorted out. In my opinion, a stroke victim is
too vulnerable and it's too dangerous to take chances. It could easily cause a 2nd stroke.
Of course, absolutely no telephone calls.

A good Sunday morning to Dennis and all of us Nomads who wish him the best of recovery and send curmudgeonly (is this a word?) hugs and kisses.
The flurry of well-intentioned suggestions for his care is very nice, but I'm reminded of the story told among the southern Blues musicians about one
of their own and the craft they'd chosen.
Goes like this: Lightnin' Hopkins was rehearsing with a pick-up band for an upcoming gig. A pick-up band is a loose collection of semi-pro local
musicians that a headliner will hire for a one-night gig. The young inexperienced rhythm guitar player couldn't keep up with Lightnin' and ventured to
say, "uhh, Mr. Hopkins this music is in 4/4 time and the changes come at the end of each measure." Well, old Lightnin' was an originator of American
Blues music, had no formal musical education. He simply played from the heart. Lightnin' turned to the young man and fixed him with a glare that
probably cut right through his soul. He simply replied, "Lightnin' change when lightnin' wont to change!" and turned away and continued strumming his
old guitar in his inimitable style.
Methinks our own DENNIS is cut from just about the same cloth as Lightnin' Hopkins...
DENNIS gonna do wot DENNIS wont to do!

Are you not getting ahead of yourself. You have been preaching rest,rest,rest. I hope this looking into the future hopefully when he can fully enjoy
something like this. It just seems like we should all be just rooting for his recovery right now.

I just had the idea of everyone greeting him when he came home. I think it would be nice, for a day. Yes, he told me he is starting to read the
posts from the beginning, little by little, and is overwhelmed and extremely grateful by the concern and caring he is getting from Nomads. He also
said he might post something. As we all know, Dennis is unpredictable!!!

Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

He's coming home from the hospital after a serious medical problem and you're inviting everyone and the 'gig' to show up? I'm at a loss to understand
your motives.
Experience enables you to recognize a mistake every time you repeat it.

Speedy recovery, Amigo. It's gotta be a b-tch but we all seem to rise up to overtake our obstacles! Banned, 86d, deleted; it's boring without you
and the rest of the colorful characters here in our Nomad Familia. Hope you're feeling better soon. Tio

Get your burro back here! Poco e poco. Celebrate the small things!
Seems like a pretty extreme way to get attention don't you. How about just falling off your stool next time.

Hopefully I will get to visit with DENNIS during the Golf For Los Niños event.
We will be staying locally and very close to his house.

Well, crap. I check out for a week and then get to read this unfortunate news on my return. Hope the rehab goes well, Dennis. Your perspective is
sorely missed.
