Met with my Vascular specialists today file folder in hand and a positive attitude.  He is a very gentle kind individual a personality that isn't to common in the cardiology world.  He listens, and I can hear myself listening, calming...He listened for over an hour and I think I forgot to say thank-you...I will need to send him out a card of thanks as a patient to a Doctor.

I believe he heard my concerns...and I remain hopeful that we can make a few needed changes for a healthier environment and treatment procedures for us patients hoping to experience a few more years of sunshine...more later, hubby just arrived home from work.
