I'm FUMING!

Hi All, If you remember, I was to have my Pre Op testing done this morning @ 0900. At 0815 I was in my bathroom, curling my hair and applying my makeup (I never wear makeup but figured this was a "special" occasion. Weird, I know). At 0820 the phone rings. It's the Surgery Clinic. They've LOST MY CONSENT FORM so there is no point in showing up for the testing; it won't happen. They've had this form since May! How could they lose it? I was so ticked off, I came home, shoved a piece of cake down my throat, and called my brother to cheer me up. The good news is that it was only ONE piece of cake rather than two or three. I also drank water to help keep my sugar normal. Guess what? I didn't even want a second piece. Anyway, I called my girlfriend who was keeping my son. We met for lunch and she helped to lift my spirits as well. As we were chatting, my cell phone rang. It was my surgeon! (he even sounds cute on the phone!). He apologized for the mishap and asked me to meet him in his office tomorrow at 0945. We will redo the consent form and he will walk me down to Pre-Admissions himself to make sure nothing goes wrong. He assured me my surgery is still on track for Monday. Now I'm calm. Thank you for letting me vent. I appreciate it. I hope no one else has any sanfu's! Cheers! Becca

Becca, I can see you fuming. Good thing the doc saved the day. Tomorrow was meant to be. Sit back, relax, and prepare for tomorrow. Luann

Thanks, LuAnn, I appreciate your advice. I'm getting ready to run over to the hospital now. Have a great day! Becca
