Dear Friends of Wilbur:

As many of you know I have used Wilbur as my personal place of healing for the past 45 years. It is to Wilbur I have brought my broken bones, from various automotive accidents, and broken heart, from life experiences.

One month ago I began experiencing excruciating pain in my left leg when walking. My thought was that the prosthesis in my left knee had failed. I limped around for a month and this past week had a consultation with Dr Chris Mow of Stanford, who installed the knee in 2008.

X-Rays revealed that the prosthesis was intact and functioning. Dr Mow did not know the cause of my severe pain.

I drove to Wilbur on Thursday, July 12, for the cure. On Thursday and Friday I had body work with Rebecca, Charlotte and John. By Saturday I was walking without a cane or crutch. Today is Sunday and I have another session with John coming up soon. After that I am taking a book to the flumes and I will immerse and read and drink plenty of water.

Tomorrow I drive to the Sacramento Airport to pick up my beloved wife, Jolee, who has been visiting her folks for the week end. At the present rate of improvement I will walking when I exit the car to hug and kiss her.

When I arrived at Wilbur in 1972 there was one room full of crutches and a few wheel chairs (we still have one chair), left behind by people who no longer needed them. I am now one of those people.

Say hello next time you visit Wilbur. We are the tall couple with the smiling eyes and laughing hearts.

With affection for each of you,

Richard
Caretaker, Wilbur Hot Springs
