Depending on the weather, I may be there. Cath and I will be on our last day of our vacation and technically we are still up at the cottage on the 26th. But if it's ugly temperature wise, we may leave earlier and I could make it. I'm a bit sad to miss this but maybe I'll have to go down and see you in San Antonio, TEXAS. Finally get myself that hat I always wanted.

Hello and Welcome! 
The only surgeon who I know performs the DS in Mtl is Dr. Garneau. I had initially gone to see him for the DS but I opted for the less invasive VSG surgery. I would give his clinic a call and say that you would like to have a revision done. Maybe the weight time is less for a revision.

Good luck and let us know how it goes.

So far I haven't needed them. Although I find I am a *****illier at times, it's still f'in hot when the humidity hits 40+ in temperature. LOL I can't wait to always be cold.

Hey Derek!

Don't worry about resisting to summer heat...With major weight loss, the world becomes a "chillier" place...Keep long-sleeved sweaters and socks handy bro!

Hi!

Welcome to our family! As far as I know, there is an extensive waiting list in Quebec. It can range from 18 months to 7 years, depending on the surgeon. I wasn't willing to wait (I'm only young once...lol), so I self paid and had it done in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. It was the best experience in my life. You don't get the same care and attention in a Canadian hospital as in some hospitals in Mexico.

Good luck and I wish I could help out more.
