Post and photo ABC's Bob Woodward on his recovery from injuries
http://blogs.abcnews.com/theworldnewser/



Bob's colleagues received the following message from him today:

I am moving on to outpatient treatment and I can’t tell you what a blessing it is. Though I know there is still a long road ahead, it’s nice to be feeling more like myself again – laughing with family, reading bedtime stories and reminding my kids to do their homework.

I don’t know how I’m ever going to thank everyone for all they have done for me - the military doctors who saved my life and all the doctors and nurses who have treated me; my wife and children, my family and my dear friends who have committed themselves to helping me in my recovery. And all of you, for your seemingly endless support and the love you’ve shown my family.

I have been moved beyond words by the letters, the cards and the genuine good wishes I have received from our viewers. They are a source of strength and a constant reminder of why I am putting all my effort toward getting back to work with you. For now; I am a loyal viewer – proud to watch all of you do what you do best.

(Above, World News Tonight Anchor Bob Woodruff at home today as he begins outpatient treatment.)

See what happens when you report from those Iraqi hotel balconies! :sarcasm:

1. I was wondering how he was doing...
He was all over the news channels for two days, then nothing.

He looks a little gaunt, but other than that he looks pretty good all things considered. Glad to hear he's doing well.

2. It's "Bob Woodruff", not "Bob Woodward"
Bob Woodward is a different "re-por-dur"

4. Thanks.
I was trying to figure out what had happened to Bob Woodward, and why I hadn't heard about it.

I hope Bob Woodruff does well.

3. Correct me if I am wrong
but isn't that Bob WoodRUFF?

That said, I am so glad to hear he is progressing in his recovery.

5. Woodward will never recover from his chapped lips
and rectal injuries.
