Waiting game

I wish my next appointment was tomorrow but its not it is not until May 19, Somedays I think it will never get here that will be the day I get my big Surgery date. Just having a bad day I fell like I'm wishing my life away. Well, thanks for listening******** hugs to everyone that is doing great and you all are in my thoughts and prayers. Joyce

Joyce I feel for you sweetie! Look back, and see, my bad day was yesterday/early this AM! I am finding as I spend more time on this message board we all have our days but you know what is really special...all the help, support, encouragement, well wishes, etc. we get from our buddies here. This is a great group of people. So hang in there! Tomorrow is another day. Hopefully a better one, but if not, remember we are all here for you! Kit

Joyce, Don't give up hope, my first appointment isn't until October 9th. We'll get there soon enough!!!!!It will be worth the wait!!!Keep your chin up, I'm in the same boat as you!!!! Kim

Hi Joyce, My second appointment with Dr. Miller is May 26 . . . then it got changed to May 28 which is the day my in-laws are due in for our son's commissioning service at the University of Delaware. It will make for an emotion-filled, hectic day. And now June is so crammed up that I haven't a clue when we'll get this surgery in. I have a very small window of opportunity and no room for complications. So, we get to use this time of waiting as a breather, a getting rid of the old and preparing for the new, and adjusting our mindset. You have an advantage since your husband has already had the procedure. So, keep busy, keep calm, keep positive, and "keep on truckin'" as they used to say in the 70's.. . . or maybe you weren't around then . . . we won't go there. Have a good day. bye diane c

Joyce, Those appointments do seem to take forever to get here!!! I think about how this time last year I was just starting my journey and was counting down 6 months untl surgery. Now it is hard to believe it will be 7 months since surgery!! Time will go by faster then you know it!! Hope

Hang in there Joyce..... I too am playing the waiting game, and the whole time I never stop reserching, planing and going to this message board for support. The time goes pretty fast. Take care and please know that you are not alone in this journey, this is a great group of people here, and you can come to them anytime, and they will try to help. Dana

Hi Joyce, I remember feeling that way too, time will seem like it's dragging the BAM! it's here! Linda

Hi Joyce, I'm in the same boat, sometimes it feels as though the day will never come. I think that everyone before us probably felt the same way and they made it.... and we will too! You will be in my thoughts and prayers. SMILE tomorrow will be better! ((hugs)) Patti C

Just think... at our next meeting you will only be 6 days away from your appointment!

Joyce, Sure hope your day is going a little better today! For me it seemed like forever when I made my appointment until I got to see the doc for the first time ... but after that ... time simply flew too fast!!! I was too scared to even post (even though I read) on this board until I received insurance approval. Silly me ... so glad I started posting it really helped time to pass quickly ... and it was great to read the profiles and watch everyone grow (well in this case shrink) before my very eyes. Hang in there and know that everyone here is pulling for you! HUGS, Tammy
