Hi Everyone! I'm late in posting after the symposium. I was really tired Monday and spent the day not doing much but resting. Then last night, Tuesday, we went to Pittsburgh to see Jimmy Buffett and got home very late as we are around 2-2 and a half hours away. Sooo, I'm finally catching up here. I have to echo what everyone else has said. The symposium was great and full of information. It was so good to meet Phyl, Cheryl, Tim, Glenn, Kris, Mei Mei, Dave, and so many others. Phyl, you always do a great job and I enjoyed being there with you. You did great at our little hospitality room get-together. Glenn, my husband and I enjoyed talking with you every time we ran into you. Dave, we also enjoyed visiting with the "Ohio State" fan. (Remember, Rodriguez and Stewart are looking for jobs!
) Cheryl, you were the first one I met (after registering and meeting Phyl) and you helped ease us into the symposium. We had such a good conversation with sharing information. After her interesting AN story, I looked forward to meeting Kris and enjoyed talking with her. Thanks Kris for sharing your information about the Ponto. Mei Mei, we got a charge out of you and the camera. I'm glad you finally got it charged.
I hope your pictures and video come out. As I am not very good with names and did not get everyone's names, I am so glad to have met you and so many other really nice people. I also appreciated the doctors taking time to talk to you when you stopped them to ask a question. I was having a problem with my scar from the parotid gland tumor and asked a few of the doctors about it. Even though this was an AN meeting, they all were so kind as to offer their opinion of the problem. I will be going back to Pittsburgh tomorrow for a check-up and hope to get this scar healing better, as it has been 7 weeks, today. For me, the AN surgery post experience and healing was a lot easier. Well, I've rattled on long enough.
Sandy
