Guest guest Posted June 2, 2005 Report Share Posted June 2, 2005 Hi Dale, I have had my hooks on since May 12th. Not sure why so early, but I am well adjusted to them now. I will be having a Lefort 3 piece only. No lower as of now. I only have a few pre-op appointments remaining which is a good thing. I have already done my lab work and physical last week. The Zip-N-Squeeze bags are already in my cabinets along with the jaw wrap. So thanks to all you old timers I am well prepared!! Wow, 300 lbs of crawfish! A cajun dream...haha!! I agree with you in that fried shrimp is the best! I am truly craving that shrimp poboy. When I make my trip down to Baton Rouge I am going to stop off for Cammie's Crab soup and then head over to your area for some fried shrimp! Sounds like a good plan to me...(haha) Dale, thank you so so much for all your support and well wishes! It is so much appreciated. I can't wait to join all my buddies on the other side!

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2005 Report Share Posted June 2, 2005 Dale, Go TIGERS!! I sure miss my LSU days, especially game days!! Those tailgate parties were so much fun. I have no plans as of yet for a trip to BR, but I promise I will let you know when I make the road trip down. I thought it was best to hold off on plans and see how the recovery goes. Cammie has promised me some crab soup in her hometown, so little does she know I am going to take her up on her offer on my way down to BR!! Yes, the food in the hooks is quite a pain. I have actually lost some weight which is probably because the majority of the food gets stuck in the hooks..(haha) I first joined this group right before your surgery and enjoyed reading post from the June buddies of 2004. Back then this surgery was only a dream, but now that dream is finally becoming reality! I will hopefully talk to you before the 28th!! Before then I want you to eat some good ole cajun fried shrimp for me...YUM!!!!
