Glad you got sprung.
I don't know anything about Barrows, but our experience, overall, with Mayo in AZ has been incredibly favorable. The flights from ELP to PHX on Southwest are usually bargains and many of the motels/hotels near the clinics are mid-priced and have shuttles from airport to motel and from motel to and from Mayo - - no need to drive. We routinely found decent meals within walking distance of the motels.
Your family has been blessed. Good reasons abound.

I want to thank everyone for their well wishes and prayers. I have a tough road ahead. The doctor suggested that I go to Phoenix for either the Mayo clinic or Barrows to get a better idea of what is going on between my ears. As far as the backhoe,it won!  The hard part for me is the no hunting or shooting for a year,good thing I did not draw a deer or cow elk tag this year. My son has a javelina tag and I will be his guide for it. Mark and Joy,please accept my apologies for not talking to the both you. Judy told me that the both of you came to see me,but I was unconscious. Again,thanks everyone for your well wishes and prayers. Glad to see you back my friend, you had us a little worried............Don't go gettin' a big head I said a little.

Welcome back Ken.
Gonna be a tough row to hoe, but I think you'll do OK.
Card in the mail to your hospital room, I hope they forward it. If it gets returned here I'll send it on to you later.
Best wishes buddy,

Boy Ken, Some guys will do just about anything for a little bit of attention. Glad you're home. Remember, you have lot's of friends just a few hours away. If anything is ever needed, all you need to do is ask. Especially right now. Just an excuse to pick up a few bushels of green chili  Take care, and God's speed to all of you. Jeff

Visited their facility in Jacksonville several times in years past, they are straight up pros, second to none. Very damn glad you made it home and hope you will pay attention to Nurse Judy. Don't know that she would really use a taser on you, but a fella never knows!  As far as no hunting or shooting, I get the first part, but really now, .22 rimfires are more like spittin' tabaccy, so get a second opinion on that. Note I said rimfires. Don't tell the nurse I said any of this, OK? You do have a .22 RF doncha?

Judy may need one of those. They do work... Good to see you out of the big house, headed for your house... I had suggested a .22 LR. A poster corrected me, said the 17 HMR was the way to go. I had to agree. Can't let dem wabbits get the upper hand... You da man... DF

I see my neurologist on Tuesday and that is one of the questions I have for him.
