DENNIS Update
He fell in his house Friday night and broke his hip. He is now at the VA in La Jolla and it's my understanding that they will be doing a total
replacement because the break was so bad. That means he will be starting his rehab, that he was doing so good with, all over again.

DAMN, That is terrible news. I just hope he bounces back quickly. I think he surprised everyone before, and with his determination, he will do it
again!
I also hope someone is looking after his dog?

Sad Bad News, Indeed
Please convey the GJ family's best regards and good thoughts for a successful operation and complete recovery.
Also, please keep us Nomads updated on his progress

Well, let's face it. He's the Patron of the Nomads board at this point, like it or not. And I tend to like an irreverant Patron. So, I like it.
Get well, soon, Dennis.
Sounds like he's gonna need some in-house care after this.
Maybe EnsenadaDr can be persuaded..........

Damn, you fell and broke a hip? THAT'S gotta hurt.
You have mucho support and amigos here on Nomads, Dennis. I join all in wishing you a speedy return home ...and saying adios to those damnable
hospital beds.
You need to take good care, my friend.
My best personal advice is: In-line skates don't go well with a walker.
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

Hope you have a quick and solid recovery. It might entail a hip replacement. Just a word of caution. I had one, had a small problem later then saw one
of the Lawyer ads on TV. Instead of using a lawyer I went directly to the manufacturer with my claim for millions.
They sent me a new hip in the mail. (UPS, insured)
