Hey Courtney~
How much left of school for you? What is your major? I am back in school, too. Slowly I will get there!
I would love a "get-a-way". I would need clearance from my husband, since I would be leaving him home w/ our 4 children. (9 yrs old to 1 yr) See what you can do!
Kath

What a small world. I have been going to Mayo for 19 years now. Its not a bad drive at all. I believe we are up to 23 trips now. Dr Nath is where? Tell me about Brandon. How was he injured? How is he doing?
Kath

Wow Court, your on your way to the big top!! Good luck! I'm an old returny to the college life; since my accident happened 2 weeks before my 18th b-day. No college for me. Then got married and had 4 children. Now, finally, I can return to school. I have a VERY long way to go. But slowly I will get done. I haven't mentioned the gathering to my husband, yet. I thought I'd bring it up over the weekend, after he has had a drink or two..........hee.
I'll let you know. I have an AWESOME husband, he wont have a problem w/ it at all.
Kath

Kath, yes, I really small world. Brando is 7 1/2 he is OBPI meaning that goofy doctor messed something up!!! LOL Dr. Nath is in Texas. When Brandon was born we were military and lived in California so the only place they would let us go was TCH, even though that was a fight, after his first surgery they moved us to Texas, basically because I wouldn't take no for an answer. They hurt my baby, they were going to make it right !! Brandon has had two surgeries and is doing just great. We are dealing with some Sensory issues right now, which is rather frustrating. Well, it is great to know that there are some BPIers in my neck of the woods, although I wish there didn't have to be any at all !!! Gayle

KAth, I had to laugh at the I will ask after a few drinks comment, my 15 year old wanted a cell phone, she is quite the responsible one and sometimes I need to get a hold of her quick....so my husband said "NO WAY" Well on her birthday I got her one anyway and told him he said it was fine...he said when, I said"well the other night we were talking about it and you said go ahead" END OF FIGHT....Got him!!! Gayle

Don't mean to horn in on your Detroit meeting, but just wanted to say to the Northern Illinois people that my fiance & I have just built a house in Carpentersville. I am recovering from a free muscle transfer done at the Mayo Nov. 23.

My neice and her fiance just bought a house in CARPENTERSVILLE !!! gayle
