Hello Everyone!!!

Well I'm back home from surgery with Dr Almanza. Everything went great. I'll post more later, when I get settled at home. But just to let all the Jerusalem, Betancourt and Almanza Bashers everything went very well. There were only three surgery's that day everyone was great, professional and it was very clean. The recovery house's were very nice also. So why doesn't everyone just stop all of the bashing and get on with their everyday routine. I know I have a lot of time to catch up on now that I'll be losing the weight now. I guess the only thing I see a need for improvement for is the food they prepare for the guests that come with you. Just a little to spicy and not enough variety. I also met Dr Betancourt he was very nice and hospitable. The question of whether he's a doctor or not really didn't matter to me or anyone one else that was there. Everyone liked him. And he doesn't do the surgery anyway!
Well this is all I have to say about this subject. I really don't like to get into all the bashing.

Thanks

Sharon

Hi Sharon!!

You've been in my thoughts and I'm do glad to hear you are doing great.

...I've just decided to ignore all the bashing...it will only continue if we keep replying to the posts...too bad surgery can only make you look good on the outside.

Hope you can come back soon and let us know how you are doing!

WELCOME TO THE LOSER'S CLUB!!!

Great to see your post and that all is well.
You mean you did not see the chickens and the cow in the operating room?
And it wasn't Bentancourt that cut you open from stem to stern... hahahaha
