Hey everyone...I just emailed Joni. I got a reply from Shelly Parker. She is the one who's surgery got cancelled last minute because someone said something to the doc about her be noncompliant or something. Anyway, I am sure she could use some support but I didn't want to invite her without everyone wanting to. I don't know her really well but I do know she was sabatoged on the Bama Board and I thought it might be nice to show her support is still out there...if you guys think she is trustworthy and that it would be a good idea. Let me know........ Beth

Joni, Staci was going to come to the party the other night, but she overdid it and was going to have to take a couple of extra days off work before she went back. I got an email from her I think yesterday. Becky

I know you've been busy, but we miss you here! We love you! Joni

Anyone heard from Staci B.? I know she posted after her surgery, but haven't heard anything else. Staci? You out there? You okay? We love you! Joni

You would think that the other doctors, like pulmonologists, pcp's, and the like would already know to work together with Dr. Stahl. I guess I was spoiled, all the specialists already knew to fax all my paperwork directly to my surgeon, then again, my surgeon gave me a piece of paper with recommendations on who I should choose so I just chose the ones on the paper. Turns out, they all knew the surgeons office would need the info asap, to go ahead with insurance so they went ahead and faxed it all to em. May want to call em to be sure, I did have to sign authorization forms while I was in all those offices before they would fax my records to em. This surgeons office may only have 2 authorizations but I am seeing that Aetna is approving more and more than they did a few months ago, so hang in there just a little bit longer! Love, Sandy
