I just found the coolest WLS link from another WLS forum! It's a recording of a live video taping of a lap GB surgery on October 1, 2004. You're invited to click on the link below. I can't view all of it right now because I have to leave for the support group meeting tonight at Pam's house, but I plan to finish viewing it later.

Speaking from a post-op point of view, it's really interesting to watch. I don't know if I would be so enthusiastic about it if I were pre-op! Anyway, it's available if you want to view it.

Oh, I almost forgot, after you reach the site, then click on "View Webcast" in the upper right corner.

Absolutely fasinating! Thanks for sharing your find. I'm with you on the question if I would have wanted to see this before my surgery. It's very cool to see now that it's over and done with.
