So excited!  I called TWH this  morning and had my September appts rescheduled to tomorrow and Thursday woohoo!  So... by the end of this week I will have completed all my appts - except the surgeon of course :(  The SW made a point of letting me know that I probably won't see a surgeon until about November due to summer backlog.  She did say though that she has no objections to me having the surgery and that I'm a good candidate.  The nurse told me she has no objections to me having the surgery as long as I can provide a "clearance letter" from my oncologist confirming they have no objections to me having the surgery and that I'm medically well regarding the Cancer. I called my Oncologist yesterday and she sent me the letter no problem!!

That's awesome!  I did the same thing with TWH, with many appointments moved up by months just by calling for cancellations.  There is a bit of a longer wait to see the surgeon, but if you didn't get your Dietician and Psych appointments until September, you'd be waiting until the New Year to meet the surgeon.

Glad to hear it's all working out for you!
