The Official Health Update - UPDATED
Notice the capitalization in this sentence, folks. I am recuperating use of the fingers. Swelling has gone down considerably and I can now almost flip the bird again with my left hand. Index finger and thumb are still swollen and a source of pain, but it looks like the meds are working perfectly.
Im gonna try to lay off the pain pills today as those are the ones that zonk me out and put me in orbit. Im very backed up on reading emails and news and the last thing I need to is to try to read through the meds fog.
I had a specialist doctor fly in directly from Spain to verify my condition and he will be holding a press conference today at noon and announcing, officially, that I do not have colon cancer.
Update: Since rumors are starting to abound as to the actual state of my health, we are hereby issuing the following photo as official proof to dispel same:

As long as you can flip the bird, you can drive! Get well soon, Val!

Just don't make the Spanish doctor fly in any medical equipment - you don't know where the equipment's been!

Let's see if the spanish doctor says your intellectual capacity is still intact!!! I agree, a video of you typing in an adidas suit would go a long way to calming down your blogging fans!

Yeah, but can you waive your arms and shuffle your feet at the same time? That's how we'll know whether you are still in charge.

Val,
Glad to hear you are doing better! Keep drinking plenty of water ... it's good to see that you have not lost your sense of humor. :)
I wish you well :) Melek

rumor is that there is a photo of val in an Adidas suit that was recently emailed to him. I think we all need to see it.

Man, I told you that hand needed medical attention.

The caps look great, and they do resemble your typical font. I do believe you will return to govern Babalú.
Get well my friend!

So, Val - does this mean that YOU are now the new unofficial spokesperson for Adidas??
Cuidate.

Call me crazy, but that pic looks photoshopped to me.
Posted by: Gusano at December 28, 2006 04:47 PM
Hey Gusano,
I resemble that remark.
Posted by: pototo at December 28, 2006 05:52 PM
Wait a minute... you mean that's not really Val holding an issue of Granma? :)
Posted by: Dave Sandoval at December 28, 2006 06:35 PM
Hey,
Granma never complained about my work!

The Bionic Tracksuit proves itself again!

Your facial hair grew extremely fast in three days. The only thing missing from the photo is your Retriever licking your face.
