april 28th

Congratulations.  It is a wonderful feeling to finally know it will happen.  Now is the time to really dig in and learn as much as possible about the changes that you will go thru.  Learn to eat every bite mindfully as this will help post surgery.  Pay close attention to what your emotions, eyes, mouth and stomach says about every bite you take.  It is a wonderful experience to see food differently and today is the beginning.  I know how grateful I am that I learned a lot about being mindful before surgery as it made it much easier after.  Again congratulations.

Congratulations, Sandra Jean!
Who will be your surgeon?

Dr. O' Rourke

Congrats on your victory!!!  YIIPPEEE!!!

 Congratulations Sandra Jean!  Dr. O'Rourke was my surgeon as well.  I really like him.  He is very caring and visited me often, as I ran a fever for a few days after surgery.  He was so concerned.  I must tell you that you should be sure to have someone with you in OHSU hospital.  They are understaffed and care can be slip-shod if you don't have someone to stand up for you.  It is a great place, but you can be neglected by the nursing staff if you are alone.
