11/4/2012 - Nine months and counting

Apr 11, 2012

It was nine months on April 8 since my orientation at the Ottawa Civic Hospital.  I called yesterday, April 10,to find out where I am on the waiting list.  Michelle returned my call this morning, April 11 -- "I can expect to hear from them this month" for my first appointments.  

No mention of when those appointments might be, but patience, Marilyn.

I am really hopeful that I might have my surgery in 2012.

My focus for the next months must be to bring my blood glucose down in to a "healthy" range -- below 7.9.  I'm not there now, as I have not been diligent about my food choices.

Progress ... yes, progress is being made.  It's reassuring to know that my file is in the system, not lost, not forgotten, and that people are looking at it.
