Hi Ginny,
Sorry to hear of your news! Who exactly turned you down? I am just curious because I work at OSU, and I had WLS a little over a year ago through there program. I am and RN, and just from working with the people there I know a few of the people in the department.
I would love to help out, but I am a little foggy on some of the details. If you don't mind, letting me know some more info, maybe I can help out in some way. Feel free to give me an email!
