Update on the Latest Crop of Belgian Hippies

A message to surfacehippy@yahoogroups.com on Mom's behalf. This is Raymond, Janet Lynda's son and I'm here to update you all on the on the latest crop of Belgian hippies. While one the phone with my mother she dictated as follows:

In her words:
Brenda now has shapely hips and walks like a runway model.
Donna is one of the most gorgeous divas that DeSmet has ever operated on and has a tennis match planned next week and will only be using crutches to be fair to the competition.
John is passing around his old femoral head prosthetic as a shot glass and acts like he's 19 again.
Tom is showing us all up in physical therapy. Maybe some needs to tell him he just had major hip surgery.
Lynda (Raymond's words) is overwhelmed to have her life back.
Dr. DeSmet, Jan & Jacqueline are even more fantastic than could be dreamed.

Randy (Lynda's husband) & the rest of the companion family members are all taking a much deserved break from the daily care of their hippy counterparts. They are parting like Ghent was a college town - enjoying fine French "clasical" cuisine, Belgian chocolate and good Belgian beer like Leffe Blonde. It was confused as "Laughing Blond", whereby Brenda sought a different choice. It seems she already had enough laughing blond as Mom was her hospital roommate for two days. ;-) Thank you, Raymond
