    I will not go into details, but here are a few reasons, if the car I want (due to size and specs) does not have a lift gate, but will have in the newer model, it pays to wait.

    If it will have a smart key, it might pay to wait.

    Anyways, thanks for being so helpfull.

    Do the boys still attend the school?

    I for one would have taken out my girls from that school.

    It seems that the creativeness or romance around the proposal has a lot to do with the kallah accepting the proposal.

    Why is that so?

    Cellphone you only use when you are talking, Bluetooth is constantly in your ear.

    Besides, I try using my speaker or car phone as much as possible.

    Why would you want a Bluetooth to begin with?

    I do not know the ins or outs of the situation.

    However after the fact, it is understood on why no one wants to associate themselves with the father.

    He is one sick man, he stated that having boys in a girl school makes the school better.

    I for one would not accept this persons children.

    The argument that the children do not have to suffer because of the father is invalid, since although they got pulled into this by force, they are still in it.

    If they would start watching TV at home, it would be understood on why the Chasiddishe mosdos do not accept the children, even though they have not chosen to watch TV, I think that the same applies here to.

    A few observations.

    One child has chsidishe payos (the older one) the other has it tucked behind his ears, more like the litvishe style.

    The wife keeps on looking on her Husband when he speaks, which (IMO) shows that he is the one doing this, she only got dragged into this.

    The Children try not to look to their sides, obviously they are not comfortable with this situation.

    Are there any posters from Antwerp in the CR (or any one have anyone in Antwerp that can fill them in) that could give us some close up information of what this persons game plan is?

    i think that reason is because NK is not a club, it is a belief to which no one wants to be associated.

    Therefore although he quit and is no longer an active member, he still might be a lunatic.

    I wonder if he tried satmar, and if they also refused him entry.

    I think that it really depends on what you want to achieve, if it is just to become a PA, then Touro might be a good choice.

    However if you need a prestigious degree, then it might not be the best option.

    Lets not forget about this, do not do ‘favors’ such as taking packages overseas for people, unless you are fully aware of what you are taking.

    When asked if you are taking packages for people, tell the truth.

    Usually a boss wants to get the feeling that you are doing your job the same way as if it would be your personal business.

    Try doing the extra step, most likely he will notice it.

    I would suggest that since it can wait a day or two (using your scenario), then rather get on the phone with a referral organization and see if they have any surgeons whom they would refer you to.

    Last thing I would do is, just listen to the ER Doctors advice without checking with someone that specializes in this area. (I know that some situations are different and do not have time for more consultation, however I was not referring to emergency situations).

    I have nothing against doctors who practice emergency medicine, however they are not the ones who should make the decisions regarding non emergency surgery.

    I am sure that you would not rely on the advice of an ER doctor if you should or should not have surgery done.

    health,

    Thanks for the freebie, (although there wasnt really any info there..)

    However all I stated that one should consult with a doctor or surgeon that specializes in gallbladder surgeries.

    Before opting for surgery it makes sense to have someone study your case, someone that specializes in studying it.

    a mamin,

    Please do not make a blanket statement, it might not have helped you, however I know of other people that were helped by going onto a strict diet.

    Either case, I will repeat myself, you should schedule a consultation with someone that specializes in gallbladder surgeries.

    You cannot undo the surgery once it is done, you should make an informed decision.

    I differ with you, I know this first hand, as I was with the PT, the ER doc and the general Doc stated that this must be removed, we did some research and found a reputable surgeon who did a more extensive investigation and advised to hold on the surgery.

    In fact, I spoke with people who also had a similar experience.

    I was not trying to put anyone down, just stating what happened, and hopefully someone will use this as a lesson and not jump for surgery when told so by o=a general doctor.

    Removing and organ is not a joke, I am surprised at how lightly people take this. surgery should be a last resort. In other words consult with Doctors and surgeons that specialize in this.

    Please explain why someone should opt for surgery when the pain and symptoms can be controlled with a regulated diet.

    Correct, you don’t shop around for opinions, however one should get a few opinions from gallbladder specialists before getting it removed.

    The fact that someone had an attack, does not mean it should be removed, you can avoid getting more attacks by not eating fatty foods and regulating your diet. Doctors suggest surgery because it is the easy way out, however the gallbladder is not an ‘extra’ organ and should not be removed unless absolutely necessary.

    Again, I am not suggesting that you not listen to a doctors advice, only that you should schedule an appointment with someone that specializes in gallbladder surgeries.

    Having stones on its own, is not yet a sufficient reason for removal, most doctors just look at the sonogram and say oh, you have stones so go for surgery.

    Also, ulcers can be mistaken for gall stones, the major difference usually is, that with an ulcer the attack comes way after eating, and with gallstones the attack comes right after eating fatty foods.

    You should work this out with your wife, either do the bills together, and put away the extra money for savings.

    If she still wants to spend the money, then it is not a spending issue, its more of a disagreement (shalom bayis) issue.

    Credit cards does not really give the impression that you are spending money, start using cash.

    Someone I know was having Gall stone attackes, two doctors recomended that he remove the gallbladder right away,

    At the meeting with the surgeon, the surgeon did a thourough invesitagtion and stated that in his opinion any surgery should be a last resort, he recomended that the patient start a diciplined diet and see if the stones give him any problems.

    He stated that a large percentage of people have stones yet do not have any problems with the gallblader.

    I know that it is considered a minor surgery. However as I once heard, the difference between small and big surgery, small is when its by someone else, big when its by you.

    youtube gallbladder removal surgery and watch the surgery, I would not want to have it if it is not absolutly necessary.

    Therefore, I think that you should get a few opinions and not jump for surgery.
