Cool Well...

Mom's inital surgery was March 7,2005, the recall was not made until Dec.22,2005 (Long after her death on March 21,2005) so I am sure that rep wasnt there to make sure the product defect had been corrected (Which I doubt since another recall was made in March 2006 and yet a third in Jan.2007)

According to the 'Operative Assement Report" made on March 15,2005 "the mesh on the fascia had not healed at all and was lifting up. This was removed by removing the retention sutures." It should not be lifting up, unless the 'memory recoil ring' failed - which is why the recall was made.

If it did fail then that explains the next sentence in the "Operative Assement Report" - "The fascia was then opened along its incision line and approximately 2000 milliters of fluid, green-tinged, were removed from the abdominal cavity under great pressure".

The next 2 sentences after that states "The small bowel was run in its entirety. A small perforation was found in the proximal portion which was clipped with an Allis clamp and cotinued to taken down adhesions."

I've called the lawyer we used to get his opinion and I am awaiting his call back.

Women's basketball is so much better than men's.
are a true dynasty with the BEST basketball coach either men's or women's Pat Summit! They should win easily tonight - as easily as the Gators did against the Ohio St.Suckeyes (Florida 2 OSU 0 in NCAA title games this year, gotta love it )

hell yes. i live here. lady vols kicking ass is not a thing that is questioned. we love pat summitt. and i have to say, from a reporter's perspective and as a casual fan, she is a very nice lady.. well spoken, and her end-of-the-conversation-smile is not fake.

are NCAA champs once again!!! As if they would lose.

I read in the paper today that the Lady Vols and O-Who (bka Oklahoma University) will be starting a series of games starting next season - that should be an entertaining series.

As for me, I am thinking how much I will be glad to know after this Friday if I am a diabetic or not (Having blood work done Friday morning) - and thank God/Allah/However for 'butterfly needles'.

hey, we haven't had a title in 9 years. fking uconn (grrr). that was a great game last night... anosike rocked the offensive rebounds like a mofo, and 2nd chance points definitely made the difference.

i LOVE shannon bobbitt.. how cute is she? 5'2, fast as hell, dropping 3's like they're nothing!

too, especially that giraffe Rebecca Lobo

So come Nov.15th Candance Parker & the Lady Vols are playing Courtney Paris & the Lady Sooners in the ESPN Women's Basketball Invitational in Tampa Bay - the battle of the Player of the Years.

OU has a player like Bobbitt, but shorter (Probably 5'-0") who can nail the 3's with ease, I cant seem to remember her name (She is a full blooded Native American) since she wasnt a starter until the end of the season, then she was on fire.

Even though I hate O-Who, I do like their women's basketball team...But I like the Lady Vols moreso, so this game should be great.
