Hello Michelle, My name is Allison and I would love to be your Angel I had my surgery on March 14th with Dr Melkonian , I understand what you are feeling right now and I would love to help you along and give you advice if needed. Feel free to contact me and I will send you my telephone number , also we have a small group of Charlotte folks that try to meet up for dinner . Talk with you soon

Michelle - I have my surgery in June w/DrMelkonian. I would love to be able to talk to you as well as meet up with a few other people. Now that I have my surgery date I am getting nervous as well! Trying to figure out all the stuff I need to get done before the surgery etc. Thanks! Jennifer

Hi Jennifer, thank you for emailing me I'm nervous too!! I pray the lord keeps his hands on me and all the other peoples just like me out here, because i need a change in my life for me and my son, because i want to be able to do things with him. Do you have to do a liquid diet if so what are you drinkng.

I will have to do the liquid diet as well. My surgery isnt until June 20th and my preop isnt until the 1st. Im keeping my fingers crossed I will only hve to do the liquid for a week and not 2. Ive started stocking up on No Sugar Added Carnation Instatnt Breakfast (its not easy to find!) so I can make it will soy milk. My friend who had the surgery 4 years ago said to also stock up on SF icepops and SF jello.

Hello Allison I was glad to hear form some one that i could talk to about the sugery. I have been trying to drink some of the protin drink,because i will have to do a two weeks liquids, before i have the sugery and it is hard i can drink the protion but the milk give me gas!! what did you drink and are you still doing it,becuase I'm drinking 1% milk now do you think skin milk will work. I would love for you to be my angle, because i know the sugery is very fresh and you can tell me all the good and bad. Thank you for reading my message you can call me at 704-921-0195. I get off work at 4 and i get home about 4:45. The first week was it hard and what did you eat or did you do a liguid diet and was the hospital ok and how long was you there.

Hi Michelle, I don't think I can volunteer to be your angel because I'm still pre-op and don't have one myself so I would have no clue what to do. Just wanted to tell you that I'm wishing you well. I too am a patient of Dr. Melkonian's and will have my surgery on May 30th. I am fortunate though in that I have the love and full support of my family. Should you have any questions that you think I may be able to answer, please feel free to contact me. Best wishes, Cathy

Hi Michelle, My name is also Michele and I am having surgery on May 15th with Dr. Voellinger (he used to be in the same office with Dr. M). We are all in this together. We can all help each other through this happy, sad, scary time. I am at total peace with everything I know the Lord is going to take care of me. E-mail me if you would like to chat. Best of luck on the losing side.
