Well, My "Notre Dame Cast" is Undefeated!

 
I broke my ankle a couple of weeks ago -- took a nasty fall off a ladder, broke both bones and dislocated it...
 
The good news is my surgeon was Dr. Jim Flynn '03 -- a Notre Dame alum who is a former student manager for the Fighting Irish football team.  He's great at his craft and in a few months I suspect I'll be back on my feet!
 
My wife Susan did the honors of painting IRISH on my cast -- this afternoon -- before the Boston College game!
