Dr. Rutledge's comments to Mr. Lindstrom, etc.

[Guest guest]

Dear Dr. R.:

Thanks for addressing these recent troubling questions. Your answers

came at just the right time. My physician husband - who supports my

having the surgery - was trying to draw diagrams of the surgery for

me, and was running out of patience!

I am convinced that I do understand what happens during the surgery,

and I feel completely comfortable having the surgery on the 24th.

I'm starting to compare this MGB process to a board game or video

game...so much excitement around each corner!
