Surgeon Testimonial

Albert T. Spaw, M.D.
Dr. Spaw is a very talented and well known surgeon in Nashville. At our first meetings, I felt that he didn't understand or fully listen to my opinions. After the surgery, for some reason, he seemed able to understand me much better.

He is very personable and his office staff are very helpful, which is important! They not only seem to be of good will, but they are intelligent and well informed enough to be effective.

I think i want to vent a bit.  I've been reading all the problems on the DS problem liseserv.  Wow - there's a lot of stinky people out there!  A lot of C-diff, too.  I'd like to avoid that if at ALL possible.

I've had a horrid cold, lots of coughing and sneezing and all that.  I carried on doing all the things Inormally do and ended up exhausted, falling in my grandson's room.  Took the lamp down with me and landed briefly but forcefully on one of those 1' cubes of wood with the steel wires on top with the little toys that hang on the wires and travel along them. 

I'm surprised I didn't collapse that - and thank God it didn't!  I'd have been on the floor for sure.  I'll bet I'd have had to call the rescue squad.  Oh the embarassment.

My grandson, who had obviously harbored the opinion that lurching around the room or having Nonna do it and crashing pieces of furniture down was going to be fun; decided that it was NOT.  Poor kid - he's had one fond dream after another shattered.  He really thought that pitching off of a bed head-first would be a barrel of laughs.  He was horribly frustrated with all of us who kept him from his dream of going "bonk" on the floor. 

He's done it a few times since he's been mobile, of course - even jumping out of his crib.  Old dreams die hard.
