Is this only in the newsletter because I can't find anything about it on Filler's website. I know someone who is considering having his surgery. I have tried to warm her and told her to talk to people on this forum, but I think she just wants to be cured so bad and that's all she can think of right now. I asked her about the ipod facetime, but she said he didn't say anything about it at their appointment last week. I wanted a link to be able to show her.

Hi Faith,
Yes, that info is from the newsletter. I signed up for it via email a few months ago, not because I'm interested in Filler but because, well, it's info. No other reason, really. I also tried to view the newsletter via his site but was unsuccessful. I don't know how Charlie was able to post the image but he's a genius! :)
I'm sorry to hear about your friend. Is she having PN decompression surgery or is it his famous obturator surgery? Either way, I wish her the best. Maybe you could copy the URL to this topic and send it to her in an email?
Warm regards,
Karyn
