My day is getting closer...Jan 19th. Went for the pre admission physical this morning. A million questions asked, some things explained about what will happen on that day. Am I nervous?.......not yet. My son in law asked me the other day, why do I want it done. "After all, your 80 years old." Told him to remember that question in 40 years when he's 80. I added "I have friends with benefits." Not sure if he understands that. Too bad, he just might understand one of these days.

Dear Mrs. Hammer:
Thank you for having the courage to post about this most intimate subject for all of us out there who wonder what "the results" might be like after our surgery. I heard today (Wednesday) from Christine at Dr. Karpman's office that she had talked to your husband, the Hammer himself, and he responded with his telephone number and said for me to call about anything
I might want to talk about relative to the surgery, etc. I left Karpman's office Monday morning knowing that the last week in February will be my date to join The Brotherhood. Like all of us here, I have some doubt but my research has led me to know deep down in that Sanctum Sanctorium where ones soul lies that this is without question the best decision I can make at this point of my life. Circumstances prevented me from doing this one year ago but that couldn't be helped.
Dr. Karpman was most cordial, intellectual, and stimulating in his exam. He was also very encouraging about his expected results after the surgery. I believe that he is really on top of his game today and that is why I chose to get him to do my surgery. I have already either seen or talked to two of the high volume guys in the country but Karpman is "the best" for me.
Tell The Hammer to keep working and I will call him soon as I am out of town visiting with my old college roommate at
the University of Texas in 1961. My how time flies when your'e busy with life and having fun!
All my best to you and the many men who have shared their experiences on this board. Frank Talk is properly named and
is a wonderful resource of information, experience and camaraderie combined. Perhaps I can lend everyone my experience when the time comes.
