[games_access] from RobertFlorio speech thank you. Recovery.

[d. michelle hinn]

Hi Robert! Sounds like everything went GREAT and I'm glad that you 
are out of the hospital -- what a scare!

I hope you got my message about being stuck at the Atlanta airport 
all day Thursday -- I finally ended up just turning around and flying 
back to Illinois at the end of the day because I just could not get 
out of airline limbo. My cell phone wasn't working either so I had no 
one's number and you left messages on my home phone -- which is fine 
since the cell wasn't working but I didn't know you had that number 
so I didn't call to check messages to see if you'd left your number. 
Ah well! It's just airline madness. Frustrating, yes, but what can 
you do?

REST UP!!!!! And I'm so proud of you for the great job you did at 
Games for Health!

Michelle
