It's just terrible! I can hardly believe that it's true!
Sweetie, I'm so sorry to hear of this, it seems that too many people are leaving us these days.
I hope you do find another you like, it won't replace this one I know.

How is that lil Andrew? I got my sticky up to send him a card from Santa...

Love N Hugs

Hi Anne,
So sorry to hear the terrible news. It's very tragic for everyone involved.
I really hope that your area gets access to a neuro soon. It must leave you feeling quite unsure and worried. Hang in there!

Thanks for adding that Momma.

As you can imagine todays newspapers are filled with tributes.... pages and pages of them. What I learned from one of them that I didn't know before, was that he spent many years practicing in Canada before returning to his home town some years ago.

Maybe some of our Canadians here on NT may have even been one of his patients. His name is in the news article I posted if you want to check.

that's terrible news anne. i'm very sorry.

let's hope that they let "regular" docs order meds and tests. after all, they're still drs.

i hope you all find another dr soon.
