Guest guest Posted September 22, 2000 Report Share Posted September 22, 2000 Dear Melody, Congratulations on your approval. Please keep us posted on how you do with the RNY. I would enjoy following your progress and how it relates to the MGB. Beth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
