Topic: RE: Support group in Madisonville area?
Cynthia. I am from Henderson, and there is a support group in Evansville. They have a group for patients that had their surgery at that hospital, and they have a group for people that had their surgery elsewhere.

There is a lady from Indiana that started a group on OH, called the Evansville In group. On that site they have a list of dates, on their blogs, for the meetings in Evansville. They have it one month at St Marys and the next month at Deaconess.

I am going to try to go to all I can, because I have hit a 2 month stall by eating all the things I shouldn't. I know need help, and I suppose to an extent, we all need help and support. Send me a message if you need to know more....John
Don't blame me. I voted for Sarah......

Topic: job cuts/ layoffs at KDMC- should i be concerned?

i'm in ashland where the medical center this week cut 80 jobs and 'reduced' (fewer hrs) more than 100 more jobs.  there are rumors flying like crazy but not alot of solid information in the news as of yet.

i am 2 months into my 6-month pre-surg (lap band) and really want to get a surgery date this year due to work schedule, deductibles, copays, etc.  would just work better for me to do in 2010 than wait. i'm nervous all the reductions at the hospital will have an impact how things progress for me, don't want any delays, etc.

there are other certified centers nearby (in wv) if i need to find another surgeon or should i just relax and 'wait and see?' 

my month #3 visit is next week.  any advice from anyone in the ashland area?  Thanks!

Topic: RE: I have a date!!
I am so upset. I had to move my surgery date up to the 5th of August because the HR dept. at my work said that since I would be 3 days shy of qualifying for FMLA ,with my original date, that if I went ahead and had the surgery then I would not be coming back to a job because they would not hold it for me.

I thought about going to Evansville. I saw a Dr. on here from there and he had shining reviews. I don't think I really want to drive to Louisville even tho it wouldn't be very often lol. Thanks for the info!
