Hi Resto Crew,
As you may or may not have heard, our good friend, longtime NPS liaison and now-retired Mammoth Cave Park Ecologist, Rick Olson, underwent surgery last week to remove a polyp on his lung.
Brian and I spoke by phone Thursday evening with Rick, who was recovering at a post-surgery facility.
Rick said his surgery was deemed 'successful,' however the pathology report (up to 2 weeks from now) would tell more. He was jovial, as always, and was looking forward to being released and back at his home this weekend.
In the meantime, to cheer Rick's spirits and aid his recovery, I'd urge everyone reading this to reply with a one- or two-sentence sentiment, which I will condense into one email message and send to him.
Here's mine:
Rick, here's wishing you a speedy recovery. We're all pulling for you! -GaryG
