Pam:

Unless the Dr. offers a reason for changing her mind, please get a second opinion.

And if you are not comfortable with her doing the surgery on Friday - you can say NO.

Doctors are not infallible. When my mother was in the hospital -we use to get different answers from different specialists. Fortunately my mother has a great primary care physician checked everything. When she was on a ventilator and unconscious - we literally yanked her out of one hospital to another one that probably saved her life.

Please take care of yourself. I know that money is an issue. But please don't do anything you are uncomfortable doing b/c it will save money.

I am going to glad when this is all behind us. I want to go back to posting to you about getting a cup of coffee in the morning again...

take care,
AG
