FINALLY!!!!

I FINALLY received a phone call from the local Joplin Ortho's office on Monday, stating that they faxed the necessary paperwork to St. Louis. (It only took 5 and a half weeks).
Within 24 hours, the St. Louis office had called and scheduled my appointment.

The bad news is, I can't get in until November--and they are currently scheduling surgeries for the following summer/fall.

So it looks like it's going to be a while before I have surgery.

I guess that will give me plenty of time to prepare.

Part of me wants to just hurry up and get it over with and move on, but part of me is very scared and thinks that waiting is the best option.

Only God knows what is best and apparently he has me waiting for a reason! :)

The WAITING Game

I called the local ortho office to follow up on my paperwork (to see if they had faxed it to St. Louis yet) and my doctor is out of the office til NEXT Thursday!!!
It's been 28 days since my appointment and they still don't have the notes from my file and/or x-ray complete.

So, I will continue to impatiently wait....and wait...and wait! :(

Still Waiting

Nope, there is no new info. I am still waiting on the Joplin Ortho office to get the dictation back so that they can fax the notes to St. Louis.
Hopefully they'll get it done one day next week.

We are looking forward to the holiday this weekend.

Hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday!!

Be safe!!
