Guest guest Posted June 21, 2003 Report Share Posted June 21, 2003 I am in a totally weird mood today. A friend of mine that had the same surgery and surgical group that I did got a call on Thursday. The woman stated that she was a patient of one of our surgeons and started asking my friend all of these questions. The woman stated she was over 600 lbs and was wheelchair bound. She asked if my friend would be willing to meet her on Friday. My friend was getting ready to go meet her and decided to pull up the address on the internet. There was no such address. So she called the sheriff's department (really small community) and they have no record of it either. She called the number and it was not even a current number. We are not even really sure if the woman was a patient of our surgeon and there was no way to check it out on Friday evening. So many thoughts are going through my head. I hope that the woman was just to embarrased to meet with anyone being that she weighs over 600 lbs. I could so totally understand that. The other concern I had was that she was a reporter just wanting to get information. I shouldn't be mad but I am. Most of the time these days I don't feel like a victim. I use to feel that way all of the time. This just brings up some of that old stuff. Sorry, I just needed to vent. I also realized that some of my responses today have been a little abrupt. Please forgive me for that. Lori Owen - Denton, Texas SRVG 7/16/01 Dr. Ritter/Dr. Bryce 479/335/??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
