Guest guest Posted August 24, 2000 Report Share Posted August 24, 2000 --- Hi Bern: Glad to hear you are doing so great. Wow, I can't believe all the things you are eating already. Glad to hear it's all staying down. I am awaiting my physical on 9/5 and have a clinic appt on 9/12 to talk to Dr. R. before I set the surgery date. Keep me posted.
