Im so glad for you!
I know the waiting and not knowing is driving me nuts. If I just had a date I could try and make some plans around it. In March I asked so I could make plans and was told I would be a July surgery so have booked a trip to Vancouver for end of October, now Im getting worried.
My 1st appt date in Guelph is Dec 21 and I thought they were done the begining of Dec but I guess not.
