Surgeon Testimonial

Nicolas V. Christou, M.D.
I found Dr. Christou and Mary to both be wonderful! Very patient and friendly, answered all my questions. Now I'm looking forward to the next step, that phone call telling me *ok! It's time for tests, you've got a date!* hehe

Hi, I'm Linda...otherwise known as Pinalope.

I really don't have much of an introduction for here, most of you know me...the ones who don't, well, feel free to go read my story and maybe that'll shed some light on who I am. I'm no more special than the next person out there, I'm just me.

I hope to get to know more of you, we all come here with at least one common bond.

Hugsssss

... a romantic love song to my sweetheart...

This song is for the love of my life,
yes, it's for Pinalope, my wife,
a little ditty steeped in fun,
now is your last chance to run!

I love you so much I could burp
I don't want to sound just like a twerp,
on this point I cannot welch,
I love you so much I could belch!

When you burp I hear your love
to me it sounds just like a dove
when you belch  "I love you too"
I'm glad I said to you "I do"

Loving you is such a gas,
Maybe I will sound just like an ass,
We raise it to a brand new art,
I love you so much I could ****


ain't it romantic?

A Poem by Fred~Ling

I Just wanted to add a little note here...I want to express how thankful I am for my friends here, especially all my new friends who have not only been taking the time to check on me here, but have been calling the house to see if I'm doing alright. Honestly, I don't know where I'd be without you guys...and I can't thank you all enough. So many people have tossed me to the curb recently, I was amazed when others stepped in to take their places so readily...wanting not just to be friends, but to lend an ear and shoulder.

I'll never be able to thank you enough.
