So..after fighting with my doctor for the referral for over 3yrs, 15 months going through the process with Guelph and 3 emergency kidney surgeries ( which caused minor delay)...my day is finally here.  Tomorrow at 11:15  I will be in the hands of the wonderful Dr. Bhojani and his team.

I would like to thank everyone on this forum (especially the vets) who have helped guide me and made me realize that this process was not a race, and to use the time I had to get my mind and body ready for this new lifestyle.  To anyone out there who is frustrated with the wait...please don't be-- use the time wisely...your time will be here before you know it.

To all you guys that have pm'd me..thank you so much for your well wishes...

See you all on the other side!

Vicky
