USC medical center, here I come...(maybe) - Page 2

I think I just figured something out...

Sca-lia
Sca-lito
Sca-eagles!

Makes sense to me.

Seriously, sorry to hear about all your hospital and health shenanigans, Leo. Wherever the hospital, I hope they figure it all out. USC has a good hospital. And it's so close to the park. Monsters Inc ride... hint hint.

I'll just have to lead the charge with a tiny flag hoisted on a sphincter-spreading tool.

MBC, are you available?

Of course! Although, I must say, I've never been referred to as a "sphincter spreading tool". It has such a nice ring to it however that I felt the need to change the line under my user name.

... and I'm enjoying that image a lot more than I probably should.

Best wishes for a speedy "local" recovery, Leo... and if USC is in the cards, I WANT PICTURES!!!

See how much we love you? News of an impending brush with a scalpel brings out homosexual banter and invitations to a theme park.

I really hope you don't end up associating a trip to LA with a long painful recovery. Here's hoping you can stay home!

One of the reasons that I am not dreading a second surgery is that my first had an incredibly short recovery. I got six holes in my abdomen, but only was on pain medication for one day, and was back on my elliptical on the 7th day after surgery. So I'm not dreading it in the least, regardless of where it is (though home would certainly be preferable).

Well, I won't be going to USC medical center. The insurance has said they've found a local surgeon who has done the procedure, and while he is not contracted with them, he does his surgery out of a contracted hospital, unlike my option with the Mayo. So I will be meeting with him on the 23rd.

Should he prove to be qualified (which to me means he's done several of these operations), that will be just fine. If he isn't, the good news is that the insurance isn't going to make me travel out of state for it, so I should be able to go to the Mayo, as this other guy was the only person they could find that they said was qualified.

Whew.

Although, we would really like you to come to L.A. sometime and share a day with us at DL, we are far more concerned that you not be retardedly inconvenienced to get the health care you deserve.

Leo,

Hope everything comes out ok. Come visit when you are feeling well and can enjoy it.
