Hi David,
I am sending you warm and positive thoughts for a really good surgery across with Dr B. You are in good and probably the world's safest hands with him.

Take care, and let us know how you get on
Best,
Alastair

Hello, I just met David and his parents at the hotel and he is so ready, I think he'll blow the staff away with his Deutsch when he admits tommorrow........

His parents are just the best........

And I told David, very soon he will no longer have to wear the "pain face", Dr. B removes those , too.
