HEY GANGS

For the people who went to the Summer Gathering Party last Saturday: Remember Dave took a picture of us for group. The reporter asked me for this picture and will write small article about this party and Walk for Obesity on Waterford Standard Newspaper. Please me privatley if you want me to save copy of this newspaper for you. I do not know when it will print but think it will be next week. FYI... I will be gone to go Fla. for five days. Kathy K

My car broke down almost in Middletown, sorry I missed it. I did find this, though: http://www.deafweekly.com/backissues/062905.htm --Steve

Hey Steve, I am so sorry about your car but I hope to meet you at Post op meeting at Middlesex Hospital on August 2nd at 630 to 730 pm there. I would love to chat with you there. Thank you for letting me know about this website. I Remember my friend ( she was very proud of me and had gastric bypass herself) said she was planning to put this on website from Norwich Newspaper but they made a mistake. It was not at Hartford Hospital but it was in Middlesex hospital but I do hope to meet more deaf people from U.S. which I have one Deaf gastric bypass gal from Mi. which we became good pen pals through email each other. We hope to meet each other someday !! Hope you can make on August 2nd !!!!! Hugs Kathy K Hugs Kathy K
