Topic: CINCINNATTI EVENT
 Hello Ohio-ians!! I'm sure by now you may (or may not) know about the amazing Obesity Help event that will be happening in Cincinnatti, August 20/21. This will be a great place to be for both pre and post op patients as it will help you in your journey. You can bring friends and family, or just come alone and make new friends. Either way it will be a very memorable occassion for you and you will leave feeling refreshed and even more educated than before about this wonderful surgery.

If you would like to go, please mention my promo code of: BROWN10online as this will get you a ticket for $35.

Hope to see you in August.

Have a great day!

Topic: RE: supplies for hospital

Slip on shoes..... they make you walk post op and I always wear shoes, even at home... so with dirty hospital floors... I wanted real shoes.

Happy feet foot treatment and spa socks, because I know my husband is a real gem and would fix me up as I laid in bed.

Good good lip balm... this is one thing I could not live with out... treat yourself to an expensive tube of good lipbalm.

I didnt use anything else I brought with me.

Topic: University Hospital Cleveland-Surgery lately?
Has anyone had surgery lately at UH?  I have surgery scheduled with Dr Alan Saber he is new here.  I have read his stats from Michigan and he checked out well but just wondering how things have been going since his move here.
