Why couldn't she take a vacation?

Okay so I had to call to find out, but in case you can't tell the patient who wanted to talk to the doctor has decided not to change/cancel her appointment and is going ahead with her surgery. BAH! She had wanted to take a vacation. I would have told her go have fun, take your vacation, surgery will still be here. But nooooooo, she wants to do it now, at the end of this month.

So, I continue to wait. My next appointment to go over the ultrasound results is June 2nd, then it's July 5th for the pre-surgery appointment for bloodwork and paper work, and then July 11 is THE day.

Meanwhile, Sandra, the receptionist has my name on a post it note and is keeping me in mind. The problem at this point regarding the cancellation, which isn't really a problem but a factor, is that a 2 hour time slot is required. She's had cancellations for 1 hour blocks, but not 2 hour. She says they do come up, but I won't hold my breath. So, for now, I've got 4 weeks until I go in again, and then another 4 weeks until D-day.

That's it for now. Hopefully I'll have more positive news to report in the near future.

Waiting sucks. I really hope a cancellation pops up soon.

Thanks Amanda. I've basically resigned myself to the wait. Anything I can cross is crossed in the hopes that something shows up before then.
