Rick,

I haven't replied to all of this mess except for one post that Jean made.

I know the trouble started when a couple of ladies did start comparing Dr. K to god, it wasn't so much people that feel they have their adhesions back after going to Germany or people that couldn't afford to go, it was a couple that over-did the praise.  I am glad they feel they are adhesion-free and it is good to post that they are but they didn't do it in a very good way.  I know for a fact that it is how this all started. Because that is when I started getting private e-mails about how these ladies were turning everything up-side down.

And I know there were some slanderous  comments that were way out of hand from others but alot of the blame goes to these two individuals that promoted Germany.

I myself had surgery in Germany and in Pennsylvania and it also started a stink when Pennsylvania was the cure-all because of people liking the drs to God.

I know that Dr. K wouldn't even consider himself a "God" like these individuals did.

Thank you,

Kelly
