Dear Pat,
Oh my gosh you are so wonderful! I got your email but when I tried to respond it kicked it back. Yes, I would love you to tell me about papers on diversions and why a neo should never be done when the urethra is involved. If there is any way I can convince Kaiser to pay for an outside specialist I will need all the help I can get. Did I understand you to say that an Indiana CAN be done after a neo? A list of doctors who do that proceedure would be very helpful. I searched out one of your old messages and you mentioned the two Skinner doctors at USC/Norris and about Dr. Wilson at City of Hope. Are these the doctors you thought could do the Indiana after a neo? Thanks to you I'm not feeling so alone anymore. Now, if I can just convince my sister to go for a second opinion. My mind is filled with nothing but trying to help my sweet sister. Even though I am home in Sacramento, if I hear a noise at night, I sometimes call out her name wondering if she is OK. Looks like I may be going back to San Diego. It's a good thing I have such a wonderful and understanding husband. Thanks again, you dear sweet lady, Barb
