Hi Everyone,

I just thought I would keep you up to date about the NS meeting.

I am looking into Salem Hospital, Beverly Hospital, Kindred Hospital in Peabody etc.

I hope you will join me .  All I know is, I can use all the help I can.

 oooh hi everyone!  I'm great actually!  I've been hanging out at the VSG board but need to pop over here with my girls.  

Surgery with Dr. Partridge was great - I liked that everyone in the OR was a woman, anesthesiologist, etc. - very empowering, no?  Anyway, it's only been in the past week or so that I had some hiccups in my process at Newton Wellesley but Dr. P got right on them and all went off w.out a hitch.

I've posted elsewhere about this but one thing I should have done was to have specified no students.  I know there are non-stop interruptions, but during the time I was there there was just gazillions of student nurses and med students and I felt awful and didn't want to be a "case" for them.
No no no.  First day at home was kinda rough just because I was so, so tired and had the usual incision pain.  But it's all true, each day gets better and better

Many hearts

Topic: RE: Christmas Get Together
in my experience, spouses/partners who are not surgery folks are less excited about these kinds of events. 

I'm happy to come, happy to cook, happy to pay whatever.  Can do dressy or casual.  I'm not sure if we need a DJ - but a bigger space would be a lot of fun if we could find one.
