Hi everyone, I have never been to any of the meetings
but I read all the emails between everyone. This email
really caught my eye because I already had the J-pouch
surgery in Jan. My takedown is scheduled for May 4th
at Cedars. I had chronic UC and I have never felt
better since my surgery. If anyone has any doubts
about the surgery I would say go for it, it's a life
saver!!!!!
