Perhaps you should refer to this as a physical rehabilitation center in the head. I sounds like he was in alcohol rehab.

What a man. The courage, kindness, focus and contributions he made are remarkable to me, as well as his wisdom. I wish I had just some of his qualities....certainly a man to look up to. A healthy and speedy recovery to you, Mr. Wooden...and God bless you.

dear coach wooden---
get well SOON.
you mean so much to so many of us.

Coach Wooden returns home just in time to see UCLA make the Sweet Sixteen! A speedy recovery to a great coach but more importantly a great man.
