Surgeon Testimonial

Joao Marchesini, M.D.
I'm back to square one. I'm being laid off, which changes everything. Instead of waiting twelve months for insurance approval under COBRA (due to insurance-required diet monitoring), risk battling a NEW insurance company over coverage, or wait a year for FMLA to kick in again, I've decided to go ahead and self-pay while I'm unemployed.

I've decided to go with Dr Marchesini in Brazil. I like him for several reasons - he's very polite in his emails, he answered my questions, and addressed problems he foresaw from my emails, wanting to confirm whether or not I was ready for surgery. He didn't just rush into it, but took the time to make sure I was prepared.

    HAPPY 1st SWITCH-I-VERSARY, BT ... I hope you're as proud of yourself as WE are of you. You've been a stellar student who has in many ways surpassed her teachers. You've grown in many more ways than you've shrunk -- and that's a heck of a lot. And as far as the other horizons you wish to explore, you may need to go outside your comfort zone but it's all within your reach ... A year from today you'll be posting about this and having realized many of your wildest dreams. {{{HUGS}}}

Have you been to Blackthorne Bay?
I've recently started a new activity - selling items on Ebay (www.blackthornebay.com) - and I must say it's an interesting learning experience. It can take me hours right now to put everything together for one listing because I'm trying to experiment, research and see what's going on.

I'm sure eventually it will get to be second nature, but for now it's a time-consuming but interesting endeavor. I sold my first item tonight since the store launched on Friday. I was so excited when I got the email!
