danyel723 0 Posted May 30, 2008 I don't have any books, but you might want to check on Amazon they sell used books...it's worth a shot. Have you scheduled a surgery date? Or are you still deciding? Let me know if the amazon thing works. Take care, Danyel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SanDiegoSusan 1 Posted May 31, 2008 Please don't forget that wonderous source of FREE books - your local public library! If they don't have it in stock they may be able to "inter-library loan" it from another branch or even state. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They don't have them. :smile: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
orea15 0 Posted May 31, 2008 You can also check the prices and availability on half.com and Ebay. I second the recommendation of Jessie Ahroni's book. I am on an email list she supports and she's great. I've learned a lot from her. Orea:thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
