McCracken Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 I am the new girl and have been pouring over all of the posts for a week now. I am scheduled for my band {which i think I'll name Journey, like the band} on 5/8. All of your discussions have taken my stress level down tremendously, seriously I just cant wait. So just thought I would quit being voyeristict and join in the conversations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCracken Posted April 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 OK it only took me three days to get my ticker working, however I've lost my stupid photo. So anyway yes I THINK my doc will be Dr. Ortiz. Thanks for the warm welcome. BMAC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
