    OMG I'm so excited

    I called Lana this morning to see if she can schedule my scope (it was ordered on July 3rd).  Not only did she book my scope (Sept 7th), but my education class (Aug 22nd) and meeting with Dr. Mamaza (Sept 6th).    If all goes well, it looks like I will be well healed before my daughter's desitination wedding on January 16th.  YAY
