Surgeon TestimonialEric Bour, M.D.Wow . . . What can I say about Dr. Bour? My consultation with him was the best. I now feel totally at ease going into surgery. My first impression of him during the information session was a good one. He seemed very detail oriented. (You want that in a surgeon! ha ha). He was also very personable and extremely confident and knowledgeable of the procedures and statistics.
After my consultation with him, I was just blown away at his concern for me. He answered even my silliest questions thoughtfully and completely. He wasn't in a hurry to get things done and go on to the next patient. He looked me in the eye. (Which doesn't happen much in my experience with the medical professionals.) Again, I feel very confident, and trust him completely. He is definitely a man with a plan! One in which I will follow to the last letter!

Murphy has moved into our home today
Have you ever heard of Murphy's Law? What can go wrong, will go wrong! I just have to laugh!
All of this just happened Thursday, (yesterday), and today, Friday. Wednesday night, our dishwasher started making this noise in the middle of the night, that we could hear all the way into the master bedroom. Kinda like a grinding noise. Both me and DH get up and make sure there is nothing "jammed" in there, and to no avail. We decide to call the repairman. (I stil haven't, and later you will realize why.)
I come home on Thursday night, after going to exercise, (Yes, I am in an exercise class . . . who would have dreamed it! ha ha), I come into the house at 8:00, and my kitchen sink is filled with wet, soapy clothes! UGH The washing machine has died. RIP 16 year old washing machine. I take those clothes, and rinse them the best I can, and wring them . . BY HAND, UGH!, and then put them in the dryer, and low and behold, the Dryer is dead! It will not provide any heat to dry clothes, whatsoever. RIP 16 year old dryer! They died together! How sweet. They just couldn't go on without each other! We went shopping for a new washer and dryer, and they are expensive!!
Well, later on in the day, I took the kids fishing down to the pond, and we caught some blue gill fish! The kids had a blast, and they wanted their daddy to see the fish, so we brought them in a bucket filled with pond water back to the house. Well, our beagle then takes and shoves his head into the bucket, grabs a fish, and runs off, and rolls all over it, and then proceeds to eat it alive!!! EWWWWWW! He ate the entire fish! Bones and all . . . double EWWWWWWWWWWWW! Then he runs through my home smelling of fish! YUK!
Well, the dog has had a bath, we are rationing our clothing until Tuesday. (If you see us in Walmart this weekend, we are buying underwear!) And I promise to call the Dishwasher repairman on Monday. Murphy has got to go!!!
On the weight loss front, I have lost a total 70 pounds, 50lbs since surgery, and I am feeling great. Others are losing faster, and yes I feel like I should be doing better, but, I am waiting on the Lord! He knows what is best.
Laugh, and God Smiles . . . . . . God Bless you all!
