Waiting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know the many of you are feeling the same about waiting for Dr. Savoie to call. I am so frustrated with this waiting. I just would like to get this moving already. I am  completely losing it  . My patience has taken to shooting  me in the back. In the mail I recieved my approval letter switching me to Dr Savoie in NB for WLS. I knew it was coming but still be thrilled yet a couple hours later I cried for nearly 30 minutes straight. Call it what you will, today I'm so out there I need GPS to get home and We are still WAITING FOR DR. SAVOIE'S OFFICE TO OPEN!!!!!! I really need to hear some news  saying his office is ready for us. 

Thanks for listening

Laurie

I hear ya!

I've been quiet for a while now (unlike me on so many levels). 

My mom goes for her consult with Dr. Beausoleil tomorrow and I'm keeping my fingers crossed for her.  At the same time, I'm soooooo frustrated by this total lack of knowledge given to everyone on the status of this damned facility (pardon my French) that it's making me think that they don't know what the heck is going on.  Sounds like a bunch of yo-yos to me.

There is nothing to do but bite my tongue, get my support from the forum here and hope against hope that I can get this done before I start work in May/June or after I'm done in Sept/Oct.

Of course I'd rather it be tomorrow/yesterday but that's not going to happen .

So I'm keeping my fingers crossed for everyone who's going to have their surgeries soon and will keep praying for everyone who's pre or post-op so that everything goes smoothly and that there are no complications with anyone.

I really feel for you ladies that are waiting. I waited 3 YEARS for my surgery. My heart goes out to ya!

Yep, we do know what waiting means. I have been waiting 5 years. From first referral to surgery, 5 long years. Charline has waited 6 and Suzanne has been waiting for 9 years. The waiting is the worse part.
 
I didn't want to leave the house for fear that I'd miss the call' I didn't want to go on summer holidays because I thought they'd call and i was gone. When i did go on vacation I was worried that I'd missed it. Afraid they'd call and get the answering machine and move on to the next one. In the end that's what kind of happened . I had my consult and was waiting to go to the info session. When she called she said she had called someone else and there was no answer so she moved on to the next person on the list ,me.

Hopefully you guys won't have to wait as long as we did. Waiting does suck. If we had money to self pay, there'd be no waiting.

I feel your pain, Laurie, we all do!  And thank goodness we have each other to vent with.  I know that it will happen, I know we have to be patient, I know what everyone is saying and on and on but we STILL need to vent!! So all you people out there who tend to see the glass half full or who have waited for 5 years or who have had their surgery already, please be patient with us as we vent!!!  The day will come when we'll all wonder why we were so impatient but for the time being, it's hard on the head!!  Hang tough, Laurie, cause we're all hangin' with ya! Believe me, I'm as frustrated as you. This time next year...................
I wonder how tiny I'll be!!!

Thanks for your comments,
Today is another day... and still losing it but trying to be reasonably sane for my hubby. Although he says sanity is a relative term when it comes to me

I keep thinking about what I'll look like in say 18mths from now. The thought that I could be having a healthy and fully active  life just hasn't sunk in . I guess I'll just have to wait to find out..darn it I'm in a hurry!!!

Hey Dreamcatcher...in 18 months from now you will be one heck of a lot less in the weigh department... I lost about 100 pounds in my first 6 to 8 months.  So.... Ms. DS chick....even if you don't get done for a few months...heck...even if it is year end... you are going to be one slim chick in 18 Months!

Thank you,
I having an even better day today  . Way to go with the weight loss, I hope mine is that great . At this moment I am looking forward to the weekend and valentine's day.
