Yes, I understand Neenagh. But, I suppose if worse comes to worse I'm sure you can talk the Doc. in not using their actual letterhead paper (I'm sure they've had this come up before) and being very discreet and not use the word "elective" etc.

Just want you to know that you have other options if it has to come to it so that you don't needlessly worry.

thanks Chloe

Hey Yoda, I will definately talk to the doc and see. Thanks for the great advice. GETTING NERVOUS!!!! hehehe My dh and ds are coming with me for moral support, bless them

Congrats Neenah,

Dr. Mumford did my surgery on June 15th and did a terrific job, you will be fine in his hands.

A suggestion regarding your financing. If you have enough equity in your home do your best to get an unsecured line of credit. It may take some huffing and puffing (they tried that with me) but worth not linking it to your home.

If not, you've got to do what you've got to do to get it done!

Good luck,

Joann

Hi betty boop, thanks!

Will Dr. mumford let my sister and husband come in for the consult? What happens at the consult? Should I buy new undies? hehe

lmao @ the new undies...I think he may prefer a thong!

I don't see why not, it's just an information session and should not be a problem at all. My two daughters came with me on mine but asked them to stay in the waiting area (they are young and I didn't want them at the time to know anything).

Give the office a call but I really don't think it will be a problem.

Good luck and let me know how it goes.

Joann (a.k.a....betty!)
