Re: Hello from Old Member (Kindly, )

[Guest guest]

Hi ! It's nice to see a veteran from the original days of this

group. Unfortunately those posts are long gone (some are preserved on

the geocities site), but you were kind enough to give me permission

to post your link on the geocities site. I always thought your photo

series was great, showing how much change can take place over a year.

Hope you are doing well!

Hey ! Nice to hear from you. Glad you were able to preserve

some of the posts from the original club because I recall that there

were some great questions and answers that were posted, and as I

look through recent posts, we all tend to have similar questions.

Best to all! Kindly,

Hi ,

That's what I thought too, there were great Q & As. I originally just

listed them for myself in preparation for my surgery, but thought

that others could benefit from them too, so I set up the geocities

site. Who knew yahoo would zap them all when we went from clubs to

groups? It's probably because this site was so large - the oss2 site

I set up still has all its posts intact.

I remember (when the old posts were still here), how active you had

been in the early days. One only has to look at the links section to

see how many you contributed! To me, you're one of the founding

members, and I'm really grateful for the work you put into this

support group.

Stacey (bosegert) and neta-lee pop in from time to time, you probably

remember them (3-timers). Even bedbug (who is probably on her 6th

anniversary this year) pops in to say hi!

Take care,

Yes, it was fun being so active in the club. I can't believe that I

am 5 years post-op as of February 4th!!And you're right there are a

lot of great links from the " old club days " that to my surprise are

still active, so I hope current members use them. For awhile there

I became the resident researcher when someone had a question or

needed info. I noticed a couple of excellent links posted by the

true Founder (SouthernBelleCutie) that list a summary of insurance

laws by state. I know a lot of members have problems getting their

jaw surgeries covered by their companies and many may not know that

several states have laws that obligate insurance companies to cover

orthognathic surgery when determined by the doctor to be medically

necessary. This group (formely club) was a lifesaver for me! I'm

very glad you bridged the gap by creating the Geocities site. Best!
