Surgeon Testimonial

Tim Faulkenberry, M.D.
I met Dr. Faulkenberry at the WLS Seminar in Austin, Texas; and was immediately impressed at how he looked at the group of attendees - all of whom are morbidly obese. He was caring and compassionate and non-judgemental about how they(we) arrived at this weight.

Had my first visit - he was honest and open and funny. I look forward to my visit next week when we schedule my lapband surgery!!!

I had my surgery on 08/04/2005, and Dr. Faulkenberry was wonderful. He has such a calm and humorous manner, and my surgery was a breeze. I feel lucky that I found this doctor.

    One good thing about this upcoming surgery is that gall bladder and those gall stones must weigh at least 3 pounds, so when removed you'll be in onederland! Wishing you courage and strength, CL

Another Day, Another Dollar
Ok I have no idea why I made that the subject line, perhaps because I am at work and feel like rambling.  Just wanted to go into the weekend with some fun.

My Spring Fairy Name is Butterfly Morning-Dew - what's  yours?

It has been a strange week, that has flown by quickly.  I need a haircut and will do that today.  Headed off to Dallas tomorrow to see my mom and take her shopping and such.

I am wearing the coolest shoes ever today - so unbelievably comfortable.  I wanted (don't laugh) some gladiator sandals but need comfort and good for walking.  So I found some Earth sandals that met my needs and they totally rock.

My iPod is one of my favorite toys - I have thousands of songs on it and listen to music all day long.  Without the iPod I'd want to sing and my co-workers wouldn't appreciate that!  Mine is red of course.

I love this new forum, all the people are great.  I still go other places but this one feels like home.

My son is doing his best to convince me that Obama is the right choice - I am a Hillary fan so that has led to some interesting discussions.  He could have been a lawyer or lobbiest with his powers of persuasion.  I will see him at the end of April when I go to the DC area on vacation. 

My other son should be moving to Texas with his wife this summer - I am so excited!

And to leave you with some questions to ponder...

* If a man said something when he was all alone in the woods, would he still be wrong?

* If nobody buys a ticket to the movie, do they still play it?

* When you own a piece of land, how far down do you own it?  To the core of the earth?

* How come glue doesn't stick to the inside of the bottle?

* If you pass gas and burp at the same time, does that create a vacuum in your tummy?

* If your primary surgeon suddenly died during your surgery, would the secondary doctor work on you or the doctor?

* What does it mean to be 'head over heels' about something?  Aren't we always that way?
