OH NO!  Maybe you can post a separate message to see if you can get a ride with someone else.  There isn't anything going on Sunday.  I think some people are staying over Saturday night.  I know there are some people coming from your area so post a message and see if you can happen to get a ride up.

Hey Amy, thank you dear for everything that you have done for me on OH and in the past. I really cannot wait to meet you girl. You have been my rock when things looked down and so bleak. I hope that I can somehow return the favor to you one day or maybe just to someone who needs a friend to listen as you have done for me. I hope for alot of smiles from all the wonderful people here on the board. Is the owner of O.H. gonna be at the meeting? I would love to meet him too. It has been a huge struggle for me all these years but I am beginning to see a little speck of light at the end of my long tunnel...cant wait till Sept 8, 07 yeah.....God Bless You......Renee

I'm not sure if Eric the founder will be at the conference.  I'll see what I can find out.  I cannot wait to meet you.  It's been a long time coming! I'm glad that I was able to help give you some encouragement along the way.

Amy Sorry to hear about your grandmother.  Hope you are doing better. I am also sorry I missed the meeting but I was in Boston handeling my own crisis with my daughter and grand-daughter.  I have passed your site on to members of the Advanced Obesity site and they also have learned much from it.   I have gotten all my pre op and was ready to set a surgery date with Dr Smith and was told that he no longer takes medicare, so I am now searching for another doctor.  I wanted to have the DS, but it looks like their are no medicare approved providers in Georgia that do the DS.  I would be will to travel a reasonable distance but am not having much luck finding that either.  Any suggestions? And how was the meeting.    Bernadette

Hi Bernadette, Have you tried posting a message on the DS board to see if anyone might have some ideas on who will take Medicare in the area?  Have you talked with Dr. Smith's office.  I've been told that he has taken it, but that does change.  Do check out the DS board if you haven't. Here's a link: http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/DS/a,messageboard/board_id ,5357/

Dr. Smith was the doctor who I was going to who no longer takes medicare, so I will try posting on the DS board .  Thanks

There are several DS surgeons who take medicare.  My surgeon, Dr. John Maguire in Dayton, Oh, takes medicare.  In order to take medicare, the hospital needs to have received the Center of Excellence.  You can find a listing of DS surgeons on www.duodenalswitch.com
