Talking Dick Went home today!!!

Good News- Dick went home today!!
Friends
Here comes some good news!! Dick went home today about 3:00pm. He really looks good and his spirits are high.
I stopped by the hospital this afternoon to check in on him, and lo & behold, his room was empty! I stopped at the nurses station and upon hearing that they had sent him home I let out a whoop!
I drove over to their home, and spent about 45 minutes with Dick & Barbara, and it was wonderful! We don't have to worry about holding back anything from him because Barbara told him about Ronnie Reed and the little problem when his son took his car out.
They have given the go-ahead for visits, but not before 10:00 am, and please call first- 214-340-4434.
Barbara told me that the surgeon was convinced there was another presence in the operating room with them, and helped him guide the knife!
Please, don't make too much fun of Dick's "ponytails" or encourage him toward a "comb-over" when he shows you his incision because we don't want to give him any ideas.
Once again:
Dick & Barbara Flesher
10035 Windledge Drive
Dallas, Texas 75238
214-340-4434

Give them a call, and stop over. They will be glad to see you, and it will be good for all.
John Russell..... in a REAL GOOD MOOD!!!!!

Best wishes to Dick, his family, and all of the TCC and CC members who cheered him on. I know it has been a tough week in the south with the loss of Ronnie Reed on top of this, but we really are extended family for those that need it.

That is great news! There is at least one person out west that's rooting for him - I'm sure there are more. Hoping the best for him and his family.

Great news for Dick....Glad to see that he is home with his wife as he should be.........

Bill S. and Family

PS: Rumor has it that "the other presence in the operating room" was a member of "Da Bunnies" organization. Another rumor has it that this other presence was heard to say "you droppa da knife, I droppa your kneecaps"........(got to watch out for those Jeresy Bunnies)

Thumbs up

Very GREAT NEWS!!!

I have heard they employ clowns in some children's hospitals because the children heal faster when they laugh. Might I recommend you take a drive--the smile will definately make you heal faster.

GREAT NEWS!!!
