Well, my husband and I are heading to
University Hospital in Phila tomorrow early
AM for his fistula surgery.  This will be the
third attempt at a fistula for him, so I am
very anxious that it takes. 
This surgeon is supposed to be the best
when it comes to placing fistulas in patients
who previously had problems, and we were
referred to him thru the nurse/prac. (who we
both like very much) at his unit.
Please wish him luck, I want my Big Guy to
get this thing and have it work well!
