I would also like to find out if there is a way to see any other

complaints. I was told by my doctor that saline was safe and I would

have no problems. If other woman are having the same problems I would

have liked to know before I got mine done! This information would be

good to have!

Hmmm, this is a first! I don't think I've seen any other woman who

had it done in a private clinic in a home, even though I have heard

of these kinds of things happening. I would not have a clue about

how to investigate this doctor, other than going to your state's

medical board and inquiring there. Good luck!

Well nothing surprises me with plastic surgeons.

The PS who put in my implants advertised as being board certified - and he

assured me he

was, back in 1984. He was not board certified and was never eligible to be

board certified.

He also was responsible for a woman's death, by improper administration of

anesthesia,

cited for inadequate record keeping, insurance fraud and by the time he finally

lost his

license, he had 3 criminal counts of sexual assault against him...

He was a real charmer.

Hi Kenda,

I'm doing okay. We suffered some damage from the hurricane, and just got

electricity on

this morning. Our wind insurance is horrible - like $6,000 deductible, so most

of this

repair will come out of our pocket. That's what we get for insurance when we

live close to

the ocean in South Florida - we can only get insurance through the state. I'm

pretty

discouraged about that, but we had no choice. Other than that, we are doing

fine. My

husband and I and our pets came through without injury. We are having the huge

trees

removed - one that fell on our house, and the other that fell in our neighbor's

yard. We

have quite a bit of damage to the exterior of our house, but no major structural

damage

that we know of. I do know I never want to go through a hurricane again!

Thank you Patty ...

We survived the hurricane, but our huge trees did not. It's going to take a

long time to

cleanup & repair the roof and sides of the house- especially with our wind

inusurance

which probably won't cover any of it. I truly despise insurance!! I am on the

phone now

to verify our deductible - afraid it is like $6,000 which would just about kill

us on

finances... But we'll take it a step at a time.

I'm just so discouraged right now.

The good news is that we got our electricity back. I took a hot shower this

morning which

was just heaven.

Molly, I bet these past days were very trying for you! I am so

sorry, but so glad to hear things are back to normal with the

electricity. Ugh, insurance....not fun, but I am sure there are

literally millions in the same boat right now. Between Katrina,

Rita and Wilma, yikes, I am sure those insurance companies are

reeling and swamped with paperwork. It sure doesn't make your life

any easier, does it? One step at a time is right. You'll get

through it...hang in there and have faith!

Hi Molly,

What a nightmare but thankfully you and yours are all fine. Did you stay at

your house when the hurricane came through or did you leave? I can't even

imagine the wind force! We have tornados here but I have never seen one.

We have been forced into our closets a couple of times when tornados have

been close but they never veered our way.

We stayed at home. This was the only time in the last few years we did NOT have

a

mandatory evacuation! Presumably this is because there was no storm surge, and

the city

underestimated the wind force. We also thought it would be minor -- boy were we

wrong!

We watched in horror as our huge black olive tree (probably 30 or 40 ft tall)

swayed and

snapped -we were sure it would crash through the window or through the house.

As it

turned out, part of it landed in the pool, part of it destroyed the fence, and

part of it

landed on the roof. Insurance says they will pay (toward deductable) to have it

removed

from the house, but not taken out. How in the h** doe you divide that cost up?

Of course,

insurance likely will not pay anything, since I'm sure they will find a way to

keep the cost

under the deductable. I despise insurance -- it's a real scam. We have paid in

for years

and years, and now we probably won't even recover... the deductable is actually

closer to

$7,000 than $6,000.

It is very strange - During most of this week, i have been pretty upbeat,

without electricity.

But now that we have electricity, and the extent of the damage is sinking in

(and the

extent of the huge deductable) I am in a funk. I felt like crying this evening.

I made it through all week pretty upbeat. Today, after we got back electricity,

I just went

into a funk. Maybe it was finding that our insurance deductible is $6700.

I hate insurance. Maybe it is just a 'letdown' after the adrenalin rush of

strange

circumstances....I don't know. I do know we will have to tap into what little

retirement we

have to pay for house repairs. That really hurts.

But it could be worse.

Hi Molly,

I'm sure you have been running on adrenalin, getting everything done that

needed attention right away. I'm not surprised that you are very emotional

now. You have been through quite an ordeal! Be sure to take good care of

yourself so you don't crash and burn in a couple of weeks.

Is all of the damage to your home wind damage? It is amazing how insurance

companies put caps on certain types of damage. We have a per incident cap

on mold coverage. With our water claim we were lucky in that very little of

the bills were for actual mold remediation. I have heard of other companies

refusing to pay for even water damage if mold is involved. Our company has

been quite fair and only putting special measures regarding mold, ie,

testing, air chambers, etc. into the mold policy. Everything else, even

where areas are moldy, have gone into the water portion of the claim.

You're the legal eagle, you can get them to pay.

I hope everything goes as smoothly as possible for you getting everything

back in order.

Take care,

Kenda

It's just plain good to see you back! . . .

Thank goodness it didn't take as long to get your

electricity back as you feared! . . .

Thank God for airconditioning, right?
