  1. Dan Crenshaw:

    I've still got some pain and inflammation, you can see that. I have a pretty red eye. But doctors are optimistic. I've been to various follow-up appointments by now. And the retina is staying in place, which means we're hopeful I'll return to some sense of normalcy in the next couple of months. Which means I can correct my vision basically back to normal again, so that's what we're hoping for and we're optimistic that will happen. I will be back with you soon enough.
