2 yr (almost) post-op - baby says hi
« on: May 19, 2009, 10:04:40 am »
Had my 2 yr post op appointment today - CLEAN!!!!!!!

MRI was taken on 4/20... about 22 months post-op.  I skipped my 1yr post op due to pregnancy.

First time posting picture here hope this works -



I'm going to celebrate tonight!  Next step: BAHA!

Jane -

congratulation on the clean MRI  ;D   ;D  ;D  and on the beautiful baby.  She is absolutely adorable.

Your post reminds me that we still need to get together.  Are you going to the symposium in August? or to the local ANA meeting in June?  Maybe we'll finally meet at one or the other.

Any idea of when Dr. B will be doing your BAHA surgery?

I don't actually "make" trouble..just kind of attract it, fine tune it, and apply it in new and exciting ways

Jane -

didn't realize til I just read your profile that you were a patient of Dr. Lederman's.  Interesting reputation he has  ;)

Glad you found Dr. Wiet and that everything worked out well  ;D

He was actually very very nice, on the phone and in person.

I know some members here feel very strongly about him for some reason...

Too bad the FSR failed otherwise I would have jumped at any opportunity to defend him.

Then again... there were failed cases from Stanford as well...
