Re: To Pam E

[Guest guest]

Colleen,

It's good to hear from you! Thanks for your suggestion. I did call

Richmond, and left a message. ( I am not sure who she is)

called back later, but I missed her call. She left a message to call

her back,and I did, but it was too late, and nobody was there. I'll

have to call her back Monday. This process can be nervewracking

sometimes. I think I have done everything,but take the Preop class

and lab tests. Am I right or not?
