patricia, it's supposed to snow on wednesday so if it's heavy, will you reschedule the meeting? or just postpone til next month?

[canadagirl33 0]

The weather system bringing the snow is supposed to blow thru fairly quickly I think so I'm hoping there won't be a ton of it....

I'm going to be in Vancouver regardless so I will be at Lion's Gate, hopefully it's not too terrible and most of you will be able to make it, altho I completely understand that some of you won't if the weather is bad.

As far as postponing....there really isn't enough time left in Dec. to re-schedule because of Christmas and New Years. The January meeting will go ahead on the 3rd Wednesday (Jan. 21st) as usual.

Take care and be safe !!!

I really REALLY wanted to come to the group tonight but I just couldn't risk driving from VGH area to North Van and then to Burnaby in this snow. So I'm sorry I missed seeing everyone this time. Next month for sure, weather permitting.

I live at the top of Lonsdale and was snowed in. There was no way I could make it either. The hills on both side of us are too steep. I don't know how many made the meeting.

I'm sorry you ladies couldn't make it, but it's completely understandable. There was only 6 of us at the meeitng but we had a lot of laughs and ended up sitting there chatting until almost 9pm !!! I was staying in overnight downtown so it was nice not having to leave and worry about the drive home !!

Hopefully next month the snow doens't interfere with us !!!

Hi Sabrina,

Just curious about the cost for Dr.Oritz...I've almost got all my preliminary tests done...might want to speed up the process!

Cheers,

kbf1,

I paid 7950 USD for Dr. Ortiz, but I would go onto their site and request a price quote, in case it has changed.

Merry Christmas everyone and wishes for a very healthy, happy New Year.

Thank you Doddie and I hope your Christmas was a good one !!

The holidays were pretty quiet for me and my family, some were out of the country, others stayed home in Alberta, but those of us that were here enjoyed out time and the peaceful celebration.

I'm not sure exactly how much I'll be on and posting over the next couple of weeks as I have a pretty up-in-the-air schedule right now. Some of you may know I was planning on spending just about all of January in Hawaii, however do to some family medical problems that has been changed. I'm actually travelling with my parents tomorrow to Hawaii (mom is in a wheelchair and I'm her usual home care/support) I'll get them set up over there, get the fridge and cupboards filled, locate and discuss issues with a local Dr. and then fly home probably next Tues or Weds. My hubby will be having surgery probably sometime the following week so I'll be back and forth to North Van with him. I'm going to do my very, very, very best to be at the January meeting and I'm pretty positive that at the very least I will be online to send out the reminder e-mail, and probably before then to read thru the boards and mail.

You all be safe and have a very helathy and happy 2009 !!! See you all soon !!!!

You have a tremendous load on your shoulders right now and seem to be handling it well. Don't worry about the support group, someone will step in and keep it lively. Hope your band doesn't give you any difficulty with all the stress and I also hope your journey is uneventful. Best wishes.

Hi everyone :thumbup:

Well, surprisingly enough I sat down at Mom's laptop last nite and saw this funny little icon thingy and when I investigated it, I found out that this building is wireless !!! So here I am online...

At the moment I am sitting out on the balcony in the sunshine, watching the ocean and debating having a nap in the sun... I know, nasty of me to rub it in since you're all putting up with the rain and snow but believe me, my holiday is short !!! I'll be flying home tomorrow and only just arrived on saturday !!!

Been nice with the good weather, I've been out for an hour walk every morning after I get mom up and organized. For the most part I've been sticking pretty close to healthy foods..lots of fruits etc. Even with the stress I haven't had any major 'stuckages'... Out for dinner last night and had scallops and prawns with salad....tonight Dad is grilling some fish. Anyhow.....

I hope you all are well and I'll post again once I'm home and organized...

Hi All!...

Just about to start my pre-surgery diet... I guess I am to eat a Meal Replacement shake for all meals over the next few weeks!...

Any thought to a good one that worked for you?
