What was the greatest gift you ever gave ?
I give alot of nice gifts away for xmas but mine wasn't a xmas one..I actually gave my grandma a heart necklace with my grandpa's pic on it about 6 months after he died *easter time* we were all greiving so badly and she was really shutting down..I suprised her with the gold necklace and she cried for about Eleven *yes i said eleven hours* straight..After that she was much better..We still grieve (grandpa died in 1997) Grandma wears that necklance almost all the time..

? for Dr Kwon's Pts
Hi Kristine, Dr Kwon basically handles everything himself, Although he is opening another office in the middletown Area in Feb and Another doctor is suppose to join the practice..When you go to get checked up we usually see Barbara or Carolyn (nurse practitioners)? Dr Kwon is a Great doctor..I love his office staff.. As for the Pre-op appts. He does have a list of doctors recommended to see however if you want to see your own cardiologist, ETC you CAN however dr kown recommends his doctors.. Kristen

I got Stuck :(
This morning has turned out to be a sad sad morning..I got stuck..Literally..I know exactly what i did..I ate to fast..but as i was getting sick and throwing up I was home alone and very scared..I could barely breathe ..They all say that most of us will get stuck @ least 1 time..Well this was my turn. so i called my doctor..They sd not to worry about it because it happens, no one is perfect and its a learning experience..well guess what? i don't ever want to do that again.. So, I have to due two days of Clear Liquids, two days of Protein Shakes and two days of puree..That i can handle.. Was everyone this scared? I feel so tight right now..My doctor says because of the spasms and that it has to take time to let the swelling down.. UGH. Sorry for rambling..my nerves have gotten to me... Thanks, Kristen
