It's a personal blog, not a promotion of a specific clinic or commercial information sites which are cleverly disguised as personal blogs, so it's fine. I actually have CraigT's okay for this. I posted the link because I liked the article and thought it would be useful for our members. Posting a complete copy of it outright would be infringing on her copyright, after all
We allow links to personal blogs of members in their siggys so long as they don't have any intended promotion of specific business. Of course, may blogs have Google ad links to supprot maintaining them. As long as the ads aren't the main feature, it's fine. If there are any questions, I always run it by CraigT.
We also have
Interesting WLS Sites - Weight Loss Surgery Forums - RenewedReflections where you can post links to WLS sites that you might have found useful.
