Default Great News!!

I'd been wondering how you were doing. So glad to hear you making it happen!! I have heard great things about the hospital too - but as with others, don't know the bariatric dept specifically.

where there is a will...You will prove to yourself that you can grab hold of your life, shake it up, do what must be done and become the happy, healthy person you are meant to be.

God bless!

I do not know anything about the hospital you are speaking of, however, I think if you poke around the internet you will find the information you need on this hospital. There is another site I visit www.obesityhelp.com check that out. You can enter the state and hospital and get feedback on people who have had things done there.
Good luck to you. It must be very difficult for you. But if you choose to have your revision done at this hospital, you must be ready to make that trip over and over again. There will be several appointments. I chose a hospital far, far away from my home on purpose. It was a commitment I had to make to the doctors and to myself. I will tell you some days I was not thrilled with the drive, especially after I had the surgery, however, today, it was worth the cost and the time and effort.
Be encouraged! You really want to change and have this done, you will do it. Good luck to you my friend and keep us posted!

I've heard of the hospital and it is recognized world-wide for its excellence. And an appt with the head of the head of the dept? Darlin', sounds like you are getting first class attention! Congratulations! As far as the bus ride goes, well, you'll get there in a much calmer state of mind than if you tried to drive it! You might want to see if there is a train instead of the bus, too, but that is my personal preference. Good luck, and keep us posted!
