Guest guest Posted December 31, 2000 Report Share Posted December 31, 2000 Hi ALL! I am having a little trouble getting all of the posts. I did get several posts concerning the 10-page letter. My thoughts on that: I began my letter with info about me and I ended it with my plea for this surgery. I put all of my info in a report format like: 1)Risk a) Leaking - explanation... Death – explanation... etc. 2) Next Topic Etc. Then I would get a brief summary of that topic, and how I feel about it. It worked okay. I did not use big fonts and I had over 10 pages. I know that this seems like a big hassle but I think this is the only way Dr. R can make sure you know what to expect and the life long commitment you must make. By the time you are finished with this letter, you will know more than you started. What is wrong with that? As Dr. Rutledge said to me once: " I am just trying to take good care of you. " If he lived down the street, maybe there would be another way but for most of us, he is many many miles away. Hang it there your time will come. Take your time and use the 10- pager as a time to research and ponder. When you are done if you still want it, at least you have learned everything you can. I will the first one to tell you that this is a stressful process but you will have your turn to dance. I am a firm believer that things often happen in God's time not ours.
