I’m With You
Hello I'm new to Ds and wanted to talk to people who have had spinal fusions. I've had two. My latest one was on Oct 22 08 and two weeks later I had a massive heart attack. Be Sweet, Peach

Thanks Dusty! Congratulations on your venison! Don is out right now trying to get one. Praying he does too. Hope you find a good Dr in 2009, I know you will never regret doing this surgery. I am so thrilled with mine! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Kim

Moment of Peace
Hey Buddy! How are you? I haven't been on here much lately. I've been lurking a little though. I've been busy with work, helping my daughter with the kids and the upcoming holidays. Besides that....politically disgusted! I hope no political discussions at Thanksgiving. My sister is a lobbyist for Demos and her husband for Republicans. Yikes!! My family is made up of educators, healthcare workers, and the politically left and right. I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving day!! This will be the first time I have it off in years. Stay in touch! Julia

Thanks for the friend request! Hope your having a good day! Nicole

Close Gastric Bypass Surgery
I suffer from many physical disorders. Take a look at my profile. I have been told time and again by all of my doctors "loose weight". Loose 25# gain 35# and on and on, repeating the cycle. It just gets worse now that I've become disabled and in a wheel chair. Small town living provides me no place for water exercise so loosing weight has become a serious "HAVE TO". I am tentatively scheduled for by pass surgery Oct. 4 '08
