contacts

[Guest guest]

I would be happy to be a contact,but won't respond to open contact request

..Admittedly because I don't want to copy down that persons e-mail address and

then have to do it off-list. I spend alot of time at the computer(after a

year of " researching " my family is getting tired of seeing my back!) So,if

you need a contact,please email me personally. The response will be quicker.

When I looked for contacts I looked for someone travelling from my area,who

had a similar profession or had complications. I e-mailed 12 and got 10

responses. I asked specific questions that I needed to know. I've only heard

of 1 person who would not have this surgery again....out of almost 900,so

don't be surprised if everyone says yes. My phone # is ,but my

hours are varied,I'm online and now after that BIG bill last week,I can't

return ph. calls. My hubby's a full-time + student and I'm supporting the

family right now. So MY point is that if you're wondering why you might not

be getting a response to your contact request that may be why. For me,I love

being a contact. I enjoy watching people go through this process. It was a

nice feature I never expected from the surgery.
