lighter02, that link is not a good one, do you have the correct one? ~Mandy

Mandy, it looks like she might have spelled arrangements incorrectly. Maybe try www.ediblearrangements.com ???

Yup, that's it. Looks super yummy. Those arrangements are beautiful! Looks like someone could make their own basket just like it, but imagine the work...all that cutting!!!! They made my mouth Water, though!

My team was great to me too....however, as self pay.............$16,000 later, I would think that a note would suffice.

Thanks Guys, You've offered some great suggestions.

Going with the crafty theme, I've found a cross stitch project that if there is time, I might try. That may have to wait until later. It says something like, Nothing tastes as good as being thin feels. I haven't gotten to the "thin" feeling yet, but I think it will be something to remind all the weight loss patients that we're getting there. I thought it might be a good thing to put in the room where we get weighed. :biggrin1:

Since it is unlikely that I will be able to finish it in time for my anniversary, I will probably use some of your great ideas.

Thanks so much, Sylvia

The week after our son was born, we sent our obstetrician's office a gift basket of lollies, coffee, Cookies etc. At our 6-week visit, we took a personal thank you note we had made, that included a little pic of our dear boy. This got put on their "family" wall.

I agree that if you send a gift, it should be addressed to the whole office. A personal note with before and after pics would be just as much appreciated. My surgeon's office doesn't have these on public display (they should!!!), but I am sure they must recieve them, and maybe they have them on a staff notice board somewhere...

I know that these guys are just doing their jobs (for which they are well paid LOL!), but I think that it's nice to recognise the extra efforts they put in (eg. the weekend and late night calls, or the hours spent over their lives educating, learning and refining their skills), particularly when the results of their work are so life-changing.
