Default I am getting closer

Hello everyone!! I am getting closer. All my labs are in, I completed my EKG today. And I have my psych eval on Thur. Nov. 23rd. It is real funny. My psych eval date started with December 13th, then I called for any cancelations and they had one on the 7th. That was cool, well I called the next day and asked if they had any cancelations, they said they have an opening on the 1st of Dec. I was really cool. Then I called today to see if they had cancelations and now I have an appointment on November 23rd. Yippeee!!! So suffice to say, I am very happy. I am getting closer.

I really wanted to try and get my surgery date by Dec 22 or 23. I work at a college and we get two weeks off. I would be able to use part of that to recuperate. I don't think I am going to make it. But I am going to try.

Thanks all,

Default Davey,

Think only positive thoughts. As my Great Aunt always told me, "A thought will make it so!"

Congratulations on doing the work! Calling in like you did sure did speed up the process of you. Good Job!

I'm praying for that date before the Holidays for you!

Congrats on getting things going faster. You know from the day I went into dictation until my surgery date was one month to the day so believe me it can happen really quick.

Good luck

Wishing you a safe and speedy process.. Good luck with everything. And remember that Dr. C doesn't do surgeries for about 2 weeks during the holidays.. so they may be already booking into January unless there are cancellations.. not trying to rain on your parade.. but want you to be cautiously optomistic.
