Hello, I'm new here! Actu...

Hello, I'm new here! Actually, I've been a lurker for a long time, but now have a date, and thought I"d better "come out" and join the group. I have been researching wls for a couple of years, started the process this winter, and have a surgery date if July 11! I wii have the surgery at Yale with Dr. Bell. I am a bit nervous and very excited and rushing to get all my doctors' clearencences. Thank you all for being there. Margo

Welcome Margo. You picked a great doc, he is very skilled. You live close to me, I live in Groton. There's a support group in New London at L&M. Have you gone? Pam

Thank you, Pam. I have not yet gone to the support group in NL, but look forward to it. When is the next one?

Margo, WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME! You will love the CT Boards and Dr. Bell, as he's my hero too! Don't be nervous. You are in great hands! Hope maybe to meet you at the next support group meeting on Tues, June 7th at Yale. Again, welcome and good luck with your journey. JA

Margo: You have picked a world class surgeon!!! I can not say enough great things about Dr. Bell. I hope to see you at the next Yale meeting if you can make the one in New Haven. Welcome to the CT page. You could not meet a nicer more helpful bunch of people. Best of luck to you, Chryssie
