a little vent....patience is not my thing
good evening everyone, i don't post much but love reading everyone elses :)
my little vent today is that i thought i would have heard something from TWH to meet with a surgeon by now. I had my surgery info class and my physio appt in Windsor, the 3rd week of june and have not heard from them yet :( so what do i do? i called LOL
the person i spoke with said that my name is on her list but her supervisor that takes care of the windsor patients is on vacation until Aug 2nd....i know this is only a few weeks but it's been such a long journey and patience is not my thing :( i know everyone has to wait their turn, but like i said, i thought i would have heard from them by now with an appt to at least meet a surgeon....oh well......
thanks for listening, well, reading :) and i do feel better now :)
have a great night and everyone....please make sure to stay cool!!!!!!! especially tomorrow

Hi LJ
I think that the closer we get to being through with all of our appointments, the more impatient we become. I think it's because we have come so far and waited so long and now, it's almost within reach. We just want that final step of meeting with the surgeon and getting our date. All I can say is to take this time to go over your checklist, making sure you have the supplies you'll need after surgery and just keep telling yourself that you're almost there. Just think how long you'd have to wait if you were just starting your journey now! Good luck - Aug 2 is almost here & hopefully you'll hear something soon!

Hi Longjourney
I understand how you feel that the next couple of weeks will seem very long for you, but when you do
get a surgery date, you will feel like the time is just flying by LOL
Make sure that you tell them that you would like to be put on a cancellation list, that may speed up the
wait time for you. Not everyone has the ablity to be on a cancellation list as they have to make plans
far enough ahead that they need a lot of notice before hand, but if you can make plans for appts on
the fly then you will benefit on the cancellation list, just a thought
Take care and post anytime, we are here for you
