Fr has fully recovered and back to his good witty spirit.
A new Philippine nurse went in one early morning and said to him, " Are you Fr Deane? " He replied, " No. You are."
Helen said to him one morning,"You look well. Are you right?" He said," I am left"

I rang Helen last night, Fr is very well. I was talking to Fr and Helen, having a 3 way conversation. Helen was saying she might join an exercise class, yoga may be. I was saying ,try Tai Chi if they have such classes in Ireland. I said you may have to bend your body a lot and stand upside down with some yoga exercise and is quite difficult. Fr laughed at Helen and said she could not bend, she is too fat. He sometimes gave Helen a hard time, but Helen seems to enjoy it.
A couple of days ago, there was a Salesian priest who visited Fr. He was accompanied by the lady Bursar from Crumlin. This priest who has been working in Rome is now retired back to Ireland. He told Helen that he heard Fr was well looked after and that Fr is doing very well. Helen told this priest it was his boys from Hk who is doing a lot. The priest said, he does not know them but whoever they are or whatever they do, they are doing a good job. He also said he has been asked from Rome to give Fr a special blessing and he did blessed Fr before he left. He told Helen he would be seeing more of her and would be coming to visit Fr regularly.
