hi Ladies, it with great pleasure to announce that my scheme has authorise my procedure, i am over the moon, thank you Lord, for the past fee day i felt like was negleting the side, but hey i enjoy readin your stories, but the before and the after pics, keeps me hope full. i have a terrible fever, and hope to feel better soon. i spoke to the lady from the clinic, she is going to check how their schedule is, and then they will give me a date for the procedure. i am a nervous wreck, especially if they give me a date and then toward the actually date, hey.........

My Drs name is Dr Saul Braun- it weird how i found this Docter, the lady who use to work for my gyne, works for him. what happen is while i was surfing the net and was busy reading the the tesmimonies of this Dr, i found her name, that when i knew it was her, because,what happen is, in 2007,while i was in the Bus, going to work, i saw this lady in the bus, you know how it is whne you know someone and you are not sure where you saw them. anyway, i went and sat down. well the next day got into the bus. Guess what, that lady is in the bus and the good news this time, next to her the sit is available. theni went i sat next to her, i didnt waste time. i asked if i knew her from somewhere but not sure, that when she tell me that she was working for the gyne, but now she is no longer working for the gyne, she is working for another Dr, @ Rosebank Clinic.

Best of luck to you, when is your TT date ? I can not wait to see your after photos, your going to look awesome :)
Hey, I used Dr Braun last week to do my tummy tuck, in bust recovering but I know what you mean about women of color doing these procedures. Ima. Coloured women and my parents and siblings just don't understand either. I'm glad it's done, even though I have some weight to loose.

have a look at Robyn in sunny SA (have a look on my page and you'll find her on there). She's from South Africa so I'm sure she can help you with your questions x
Thank you Anmarie, i will speak to her and maybe she might advise.
