I'm so sad, I just received an email that my family doctor, Dr. Wolos, passed away last friday in a tragic accident, he was hit head on by a via rail train, the car exploded and his body was burned beyond recognition, this is horrific, he's been my family doc since I was 4! He delivered all but 1 one my children, he attended my eldest sons grade 12 graduation....my son was his 1000th delivery ...I can't imagine what his family must be going through, it's funny how we have a love for a great family doc, I feel like i've lost a best friend! With so many children I seemed to have always been at his office, you get to know the family, his kids, it's so very sad.

    That is so sad. My deepest sympathies. I remember when my childhood pediatrician passed away, I was devastated. But remember that he would be very proud of you for taking your weightloss seriously, so keep up the good work and make him proud.
