RE: Date with my Dr. - Iris

[Guest guest]

Thanks Iris, for the support. I always love reading about someone doing

well, too. I know there have been times I've thought that I'm taking all

this medicine and don't seem to be getting better at all. It's good to be

able to report that something is working.

I'm sorry that your favorite Dr. closed his practice. I know if Dr. Zubkin

ever moves, I'll be heartbroken. He's been such a good friend, and he goes

out of his way for me. Imagine, he's spending half a Saturday learning

about arthritis so he can help me more. He had actually worked as a surgeon

for many years, and had a heart attack. He decided he needed less stress,

so he opened this family practice. It's very small and he can give personal

attention. But, he has less experience working with certain things because

of his surgical background.

I hope you have a pain free day, my friend.

Love and hugs,

Ethel

Re: [ ] Date with my Dr.

Hey, Ethel - You go girl! It is so wonderful to be

able to share this good news. I hope you continue

with more improvement. We all really need to believe

that sometimes all the dr visits and medications work.

Isn't it nice when you really get to know your dr.

My favorite dr that had been treating me for over four

years closed his practice and moved off. I cried the

last day I saw him and he hugged me. He gave the time

over the years for us to really get to know each

other. Ive found that knowing a patient that well

allows a dr to treat you better. I really miss him.

I am so glad you are doing so much better. LOL Iris
