Just to let you know I will no longer be handling Dennis' care. Dennis is very determined to get back to his home. He is targeting a goal to return
home in approximately 3 weeks. I have several areas of disagreement with this, therefore, his friend, Pam AKA Molly, will be handling his care.
Lindalou on this board also is Dennis' next door neighbor, so she can answer any of your questions. I will also be out of Mexico for at least a month
starting August 15, when I finish medical school.

I'll be returning from Canada next week and would like to stop and see him before heading back to Punta Banda on July 25th. Unless you think this is a
bad ide send me a U2U and let me know where he is.

Just My Two Cents of Opinion
I had a stroke five years ago
Luckily, it only affected my vision, hearing and balance. I was not taken to a hospital because it happened in my sleep and we only figured it out
when I started running into the furniture and then I got an MRI in TJ where my affliction was diagnosed.
There is a lot of anger that comes when you become helpless and strangers tell you that you are "sick" and then you want to push back against the
people who are dumping that information on you and controlling your environment.
Best wishes for a good recovery for Dennis, I am very fond of his sardonic comments on Baja and the world in general.
Hoping for his quick return to the Baja Nomad board.

I just got back to Ensenada after working in Oaxaca for the last three days and could not get over to see Dennis. I was going to see him after I
landed but i was so tired I just couldn't make it. I will see him for sure on Saturday when I cross.
I am going to call him now...... |

Dennis,
Hope you find some progress in each day.
For those not knowing, Dennis was instrumental in getting the first Golf4Ninos((2008) up and running with contacts, info, resources. And he did it
without need4recognition.
I am NOT pretending to be a best friend of Dennis. I am just a friend and neighbor who lives a few hundred meters from his home.
Get well soon, AMIGO. SALUD!

EnsenadaDr,
You are a good person to selfishly donate your time, energy, medical expertise and I'm sure $ to help a person out in real need. From the start of
Dennis'medical emergency to handing it off to Pam you are to be congratuated for how smoothly everything transpired because of your management skills
weaving your way through the morass of medical administrations and policies in two countries.
Why you did that for this shiftless buttcrack is beyond me. You have something in your heart and soul the hard hearted do not have. Why you only get
grief from the keyboard commandos on this board shows the true natured of this group, "all talk and not action".
Good luck in your new adventures and enjoy yourself with family in hawaii. You have certainly earned a vacation. Also good luck with the medical
boards you take soon. I know if I was sick I'd like you to look after me.
Dennis

I guess I should have gone in to greater detail so there are no concerns about his current and prior handling. Dennis told me that Janene did a great
job and really didn't expect her to step in like she did. The only thing he did say about Janene that was negative was that the medical staff at both
facilities thought she was to demanding and she didn't hold back when she thought he was not getting the proper treatment. I feel that with her
experience she saw things that needed correcting and voiced her concern in the only way she knew how. Dennis gave Janene both a credit and debit card
for her use directly related to his needs and her expenses in that regard and there are NO issues there.
The only reason Dennis decided to have Janene step back is because she is leaving for Hawaii and he didn't want to burden her anymore. He is not going
to the VA and decided to stay where he is until he feels he can return home.
He reads the posts on this board and appreciates all the positive concerns for his recovery. I'm sure when he is ready he will let everyone know
himself how he is doing.
I will see him tomorrow morning. I am not Dennis's spokesman, just a friend as all of you are.
I have had words with Janene in the past only because I was concerned about Dennis's treatment and her not coming forth with information that I
wanted. She has a way of communicating when she posts that is misunderstood, to say the least. I have told her more than once to just not respond but
she won't leave it alone. Everyone is different and has baggage in their life that is private. Janene is VERY sensitive and a lot of people take
advantage of that. I think it's time to just leave her alone. She did the best she could do for Dennis and had his back when he was down and for that
she should be recognized as a friend and someone who can be trusted.

hospitals treat patients like widgets, especially patients that stay past 3 days. the reality is that patients need an advocate to fight against
hospital factory-treatment. good for janene for yelling and screaming. if the advocate is timid and mute the hospital machine will run over the
patient.

Huh.....   She's running off to Hawaii with Dennis' credit cards.
It's funny how a post like that will get nomads storming the bastille.
The doctor has stepped up to the plate in a big way. She was often misunderstood because, as I see it, of her personality ("I did it ..... My way").
But nobody came close to doing for Dennis what she did.
A great big thank you.
