Hi fellow Canadian, I'm from Toronto too. Thanks for replying to my post. I would like to wish you all the best on your upcoming surgery. I am definitely interested in your post-op care/experience. My marsup.is scheduled just a couple of weeks after yours, on Dec.12. You can email me directly if you like; or if you prefer contacting me through this forum instead that's fine too. All the best & god bless. mary@ddime.com >>
