The Waiting!!!
My orientation was April 20th in Ottawa and I feel like I rush home every day to check the voice mail to see if the hospital has called. Another girl on here got her call one week after her orientation to set up her first intake appt and I've been 3 now so I do understand the thrill, disappointment, and frustration of the game. Every day starts out as I wonder if this will be the day I get the call? Soon we will get our appointments though and start the process and that will alleviate some of the stress of the unknown. I feel for you though, it does seem like you've been waiting an unusually long time since your orientation. Once your appt's get booked though and your in the system, things will move along much faster. Keep us posted if you get your call!
