I found this doc. on my own by researching the best in the country on the internet, and found my doctors teacher up in Ohio, he referred me to his student, my current new reconstruction specialist. I was heading for a wheel chair and had to try. Glad I did, but now I have to do this surgery. Oh boy....I will be back tomorrow. I am actually going to bed now, emotionally I am wiped out. I sure will be needing all of you. I am so glad I found good friends here. ginnie
