Re: Ray - Some news... addendum

[Guest guest]

Hi Ray!

I had a similar journey as Marlaine. I had my surgery 2 days after

her on Dec. 10th (we actually met at the pre-op appointment at the

hospital) Dr. Morin did a wonderful job. I got my elastics off on Dec

23rd so I got to eat mashed potatoes for Christmas also

I just wanted to tell you that works for Dr. Morin also.

I'm surprised she hasn't been returning your calls. She's been okay

with me. I did bribe her with cookies though. That always helps

Best of luck!

Hello Johanne!

If I was to give her home made cookies, I would most probably

poisened her (because of my really bad cooking!), surely something I

do not wish for her!! That lady has probably nothing to do in all

this

Dr Morin is next on my list. Johanne, is his office in Outremont or

in Longueuil ?

I'm also very happy to hear about your surgery! That's good news

again!

Thanks,

Ray

I can't understand these docs who just don't get back to their

patients, or at least have someone in their office do so, although I

have experienced that in other areas of expertise, even in serious

situations. And it makes me angry, except that getting angry doesn't

help to solve the problem.

I must say, though, that if I had seen a surgeon I had trouble

reaching before surgery, I'd think long and hard about what could

happen after surgery when I needed him!

And I'm of the cookie-bribing persuasion, as well! ;~)

Hi Ray!

Well, we wouldn't want you to poison her

Dr. Morin has a office in Outremont (on Bernard St.) and one in

Repentigny (on Notre-Dame - not far from the hospital)

I'll be seeing him on January 6th in Repentigny to get my splint out.

I can't wait to get the thing out

Best of luck!

Not tonight -- but if you want one, I'll e-mail it to you. I know

some super swell ones. (Not, however, the most excellent eating for

folks with wires and/or brackets. Sorry!)

Take care, Ray. And have a good 2004! You sound as though you're on

track.

I know all about deserts and braces.. I've managed to " unglue "

(accidentally removed) an hook from one of my teeth after eating too

much chocolate cookies. Orth said that some sugars can disolve the

glue.

Well... back to lurking mode
