Hi Alan~
Yes, great news from Mayo. Thought my arm was infected but it wasn't. I was at St Mary from Tues to Saturday. I had surgery on Friday and all went well.
I go back Feb 5th to meet my doctor in the casting room..........not sure why I'm going there??? I'll miss you by 2 days. Darn.

Hello Alan,
I'll be up at the Mayo, but not 'til Mar 17-20. I hope you have a smoothe and productive visit the good ole Rochester. I'm on the healing side of the Brachial Plexus Reconstruction surgerey from back in Jul '07. Things are looking great so far, getting movement in my tricep, shoulder subluxation has gone from a 3 1/2 finger to a 1 finger. Just waiting for the bicep to start kicking!! Anyone going to be around that time frame? Would love to meet and chat about this new life we're all venturing through!!
God Bless,
Brent

Re: going to the mayo
I'll be there on Feb 20th to see my Doctor, Dr Johnson, to see how things are going from last surgery. Just a day trip-we live 4 1/2 hours South of Rochester.
Anyone else going to be there????
