Talking Re: Mayo Clinic and New Infection Specialist

Jamie, I seriously considered going back to Mayo for the knee surgery but what they are recommending that I do prior to surgery can be handled here. They will be in contact with my Orthopedic surgeon if I think it is necessary, but we have covered everything that will need to be done in order to keep MRSA at bay from my knee surgery. :O) This is the first time I actually feel hopeful and that I actually have the answers that I need to be safe. God has been so good to me. Thanks to everyone for all of your prayers. I see light at the end of the tunnel finally!

I know how wonerdful the Mayo Clinic is up north here. And I am glad to hear it is just a wonderful down south. They give so much hope. When do you see your OS? Will you set up everything then? Hopefully everything can be set up right away. I am so happy to thing that you will soon have a new knee!!
