Bump: How is Dick Dale doing in his recovery?
Re: Dick Dale Post Op
Lymph tests show Dick is cancer free. He's resting at home. He will need to go back in for some reconstructive surgery then more chemo/radiation treatments. He's doing well though.

Re: Dick Dale Post Op
I really hope Dick gets well soon. He is very special to my musical experience. His music is the very first music I can remember from being about 6 years old or so. My bother (8 years older) had a lot of Dick's records and they are my earliest musical memory.
Get well Dick!

Re: Dick Dale Post Op
Dick goes "back in" this Friday for reconstructive surgery then some more chemo and radiation. It's been a "journey of pain" for him but his spirit is strong. I got a short note from him yesterday "I'll be back..the gophers will not be delivering my mail"
