Dr. to Angie

[Guest guest]

Dr. did not tell me to contact you. He did however tell me he

was concerned about you and that you were upset about the possibility

of having another surgery and was trying to talk you into the Beger.

He knew we were friends, obviously, as you had asked about me in your

visit and I you during my visit. Knowing me as well as he does, he

knew I would want to talk with you and encouraged that.

I thoroughly enjoyed talking with you and feel that had my husband not

come in we could have talked for much longer. We do seem to have a

great deal more in common then just cp. We are both pistols!!

I'm glad that you have found peace, it is a very elusive feeling to

capture. Hold onto it tightly and your faith; I have no doubt the both

will take you far.

Warmly,

,

Thanks again! I have decided to go ahead and do it. I am going to try and

wait until January. My hubby can get vacation days then and take off with me. My

greatest fear is not being in the hospital or having the surgery but being

alone. I don't know what I would have done last time without him to help me. He

stood up to the gosh awful nurses I had and encouraged me. That is why I was

able to get out in 4 days. He is my other half in every way and we have never

been apart more than 2 days in almost 15 years. He doesn't want me to do it

without him there either. So if Dr. Adam's can do it in January then that is

when

it will be.

I appreciate your encouragement and concern. You are a great person. We do

have a lot in common! I didn't realize how much until we spoke on the phone.

Thanks again and I hope that you can get that job you wish for. You deserve

it and you would be such an advocate for people with cp. You would give some of

them a voice they never knew was available!
