Guest guest Posted March 8, 2003 Report Share Posted March 8, 2003 Wow, Lee! I read your story on the lawyer's site, and thank God you're doing OK now. Seems like Dr. Sugarman corrects many doctor's mistakes. Glad you're here to tell us about it. in NJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2003 Report Share Posted March 8, 2003 Lee, Sounds like you've been to heck and back. I am sorry this happened to you and grateful you are still around. I personally don't like generalities but sometimes they happen. I have also had to learn not to take them personally (and it takes a lot of tongue biting to not take it personally.) Glad you replied. Keep up the good work. Lori Owen - Denton, Texas CHF 4/14/01 479 lbs. SRVG 7/16/01 401 lbs. Current Weight 335 Dr. Ritter/Dr. Bryce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
