Guest guest Posted September 25, 2002 Report Share Posted September 25, 2002 I was just curious why you had a second mini bypass and were they both the same kind? I just had mine 9-4-02 . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 26, 2002 Report Share Posted September 26, 2002 Bonnie: This is Ginny Ivanoff. I am on eof the other party planners. This is our third annual MGB Christmas Party. We have a buffet and there might be seafood available. Last year we had shrimp. It is very hard to cater to all. Last year we had over 250 people attend. Since it is a buffet, I trust that you will easily be able to avoid anything that you are allergice to and there is usually ample ventilation in such a large room as to dissipate the smell. (I understand as I have some food allergies myself). The menu hasn't been finalized yet but thank you for letting us know your allergy. -Ginny -130 mgb: 3/1/00 (can't believe it's been 30 months!) > Eileen, sounds like you are the party planner. Just a > suggestion if you are. ha!I know i'm only one person > but others may have same problem but don't respond. I > am deathly allergic to seafood.

Guest guest Posted November 20, 2002 Report Share Posted November 20, 2002 , I've been planning on going however I am not certain. I have my panniculectomy and thigh lift on Dec 5 so I am uncertain if 9 days later I will be up for a party!! Dr Don said if I felt like it and if I only stayed for an hour. Guess the party, at the party, would have to be in my room where I could lie down!!! Haha... My mind and heart are willing, just have to see if the body is willing!!!

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2002 Report Share Posted December 4, 2002 The pant suit is sort of a " taupe " /gold...... three pieces - pants, sleeveless top and " jacket " . It is a petite but the pants were " plenty " long on me. And we definitely need to meet! > Re: Christmas party > > > girl, > > I will be there if pain permits. > > I may need to borrow that outfit, I have NO clue what size I will be > by then.

Guest guest Posted December 15, 2002 Report Share Posted December 15, 2002 Let me say this.... Clinic was really good! lots of good information and afterwards, i had about a dozen pre-ops asking me for email addy and asking questions. They seemed anxious to " do it " ...we ALL know how that is!! 2 people told me they were just SURE it was too good to be true because they never heard anything but " perfect " experiences and " perfect " outcomes, but now they see that it is done on REAL people! people with different bodies and different results and different experiences--all of the people i spoke to said they felt convinced the MGB was their " Best Bet " , as one guy put it. another man said he was relieved the post ops seemed so " normal " (us?)lol. they all seemed to appreciate the human face that the post ops put on this surgery. one lady told me she was dumbfounded that patients would drive hundreds of miles just to speak with strangers and endorse a surgery they had 2,3,even 4 years ago! I told her we believe in what we say and in our decision. The MGB stands on it's own in my book.... i tell them the truth - that it was a blessing for me and everyone who loves me! Dr R has the best bunch of patients in the world!! he is a talented surgeon and has survived a lot- maybe he is being rewarded by being surrounded by nice folks! the staff was wonderful -- ALL of them! dr don was a real nice guy ...and the mgbers??? they were fantastic! a great bunch of party animals for sure! a good time was had by all and i would like to thank Dr Rutledge and his staff for the marvelous clinic, party and arrangements. thank you again and again!! xoxoxoxo cathy s in va uhhh errr Go VOLS! (did i DO that?) LMAO ps.....kathy? tell ian hello for me !!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 15, 2002 Report Share Posted December 15, 2002 > I count on you for the pictures!! What bad luck that your camera > quit on you. I know Margaret! I count on myself for pictures. I couldn't believe Sony let me down. > Can you give us any more details on the party? Sure. How many attended? I'd say there were about 70 or so at the clinic and the party. Maybe more. I didn't do a physical head-count and this is just a guess. It was a nice size gathering. > What kind of food? There were some finger foods at both events with heated hordoruves (sp) at night. Cheese/cracker platters, veggie platters with dip, fruit/melon platters, cookies, snack stuff like Chex mix and beverages. At night there was shrimp on ice, chicken tenders fried and baked, barbeque meatballs, cucumber slices with cream cheese stuff, more of the platters, quiche, a cash bar, several desserts... I know I've missed something, but you get the general picture. The format was similar as the other MGB events, Dr. R spoke, Dr. Don did a fairly comprehensive thing in the morning and he also did consultations for those who wanted one-on-one meetings with him. Nearly all of the office staff were there. Everyone looked beautiful. It's always exciting to see the weight loss and people just beaming and blossoming. I look forward to the Cookout and I hope my camera is fixed by then... pray for me please. >I am in Joplin with my friend who had her MGB > Friday and would love to hear some details of the party. > > Margaret in St. Louis Your friend is blessed to have you with her. > > > > Dear list, > > > > As ususal, the holiday festivities went well.

Guest guest Posted December 16, 2002 Report Share Posted December 16, 2002 It was just the battery! Thank God that's all it was. Apparently the Sony batteries can go bad and not hold full power. Before I lost power I did capture 41 pictures. I also have some photos from Statesville. I'll post them and let you know the site once I've posted the pictures.
