Hello

Hi Ann - Welcome to the Maryland board.  You'll find a great group of people here, very supportive and always willing to offer solicited (and often) unsolicited advice!!!  We kind of keep each other grounded, too!!! Your surgery is right around the corner, so if you need anything or have any questions or concerns, let us know!! I, for one, WISH I was in a little town not too far from OC!!!!  Alas, I'm about 3 hours away!!  But never further than an email! Good luck, Teresa (Tia)

Welcome to the MD board.  I was just in OC yesterday for the car show.  LOVE OC!!!  Congrats on your surgery date and please keep us posted on your journey. TraciL

Welcome to the board and good luck with your surgery. Wanda

welcome Ann! Another October Loser!!. I had my surgery 10/12/06.  I am in Baltimore. Wish I could say I loved closer. Good luck on your day. We will slide on over and make room for you on the Loser's Bench!
