I sure hope you have found more resolve. I think we make what we can from our surgeries. I pray that you will find peace.

 Sick with it and do it....I was wishy washy about it for 3 years...and now I am like man I wish I did this years ago...
Believe me the things you worry about are far less detrimental than the things you will have to deal with otherwise.
My only suggestion...if they offer therapy in your program...take advantage of it...because it is a HUGE chunk of you being sucessful!!!
Good luck and remember it is a wonderful journey if you want it to be!!!

Topic: RE: Hello i am new
Dr Sandor did my bypass in May at Winchester Hospital. I'm a nurse in a large Boston hospital and did not want to have my surgery where I work. Dr. Sandor is AMAZING!! He really does great work, and has such a wonderful bedside manner (not like a lot of surgeons). My procedure went very well, I had minimal pain and went home on day +3.  His staff is also very supportive and returns calls very promptly. I couldn't have asked for a or had a better experience. I don't know a lot about Lawrence Mem, I live near Winchester and it was a better fit for me and my family (plus free parking) so that my husband and kids could visit.

Good luck with your journey!! I hope you'll be as happy with Dr. Sandor as I am.

I was approved and had surgery in MA. I was denied at first but with help of my doctor I was approved. I have iron absorption issues so that was my saving grace!

Wow I'd be really interested in attending your group.  I haven't been able to attend mine at St. Elizabeth's because of the distance so this would be great.  I'll private message you to get the info.  Thanks!!!
