Re: Bad News/Good News/Keep the Faith

Bonnie I'm so sorry you were in the middle of a "perfect storm".......I almost lost my gall bladder in the same way ......fortunately my brother-in-law is a doctor and slowed the process down which basically saved my life. I hope you are feeling OK now.......my first thought after reading your story is "get a lawyer"........must be my NYC instincts........I never did sue my plastic surgeon (who gave me mrsa)......so I shouldn't talk, but still, perhaps talking to a lawyer might help you get some closure?
