OT: News on the house

Thanks again to everyone for you support and encouragement regarding my house. Unfortunately, the adjustor's estimate was disappointing, but if we budget well, we should be able to repair the house to its pre-fire condition, plus get a new roof that would allow us to raise the ceilings a little bit. For the extra time and effort it's going to take to repair the house again, I'd say we're just about breaking even, which is OK by me. Hugs, Nowal

Glad to hear you won't come out too far in the hole. Jen

Good Morning......I'm new to the board and see that Dr. Kennedy was mentioned. Is she your Dr. and does she have many patients on this board? I have Aetna and was approved for the surgery but there are no Dr.s here in Thibodaux in my network. I was told that Richardson and Kennedy were, but I don't know them. Does anybody out there know them? Thanks, RosesRKim

Dr Richardson did my surgery in November and I would recommend him. He is very nice and a good surgeron. Pattie C.

Dr. Richardson did my surgery in December 2005 and I highly recommend him. I would have no problem having Dr. Kennedy. I have heard good things about her as well. Good luck.

I am going through Dr. Richardson.... and an FYI to you... I worked as a nurse taking care of his postop patients for a year... he is TOP QUALITY in my opinion He did my GB removal in May, and I have had no problems with it at all. soooo if you asked me, I'd reccomend him to anyone... I'm coming in from TEXAS for his skill and his caring is there, even if it's hard to see at first (he's not the most cudly type, but he genuinely cares about his patients) and his caring shows it by his giving his patients the best skill they will find anywhere. When I got turned down by insurance, and fought so hard, then got hopes up and dashed again.... I was in his office crying, my gallbladder had to go, that week... no waiting for the RNY.... I was in tears because I would not get my RNY... he held my hands and the look on his face was just... wow... you could see the sympathy there... I was sooo touched... and that was LONG after I had determined that his skill had earned my respect, and my business despite what I thought was a business like "bedside manner"..... I learned I was very wrong... he is just very private, and saves it for those it's needed for, his patients

HIJACK!! 3 more days!!! I'm so excited for you.

Nowal, That's great. I hope you will be in your house soon. Pattie C.

I'd rather break even, than have to go out of pocket. I'll continue to pray for you guys. Cindee
