Good afternoon Ontario OH friends,

This morning I had my assesment with the psychologist at TOH. It was a long appointment, 3 hours, but it went well and I have been approved to move on to the next stage.

Thanks to everyone for their support and encouragement.

Yahoo!!! Congratulations OrangeBlossom!!!!

I'm super excited for you. Keep us posted on next steps... I don't know the Ottawa procedure - meet the surgeon next, or have you done that?

Hopefully Ottawa moves quickly, and maybe you will have surgery as early as this summer!!!! :)

Thanks Oneatatime. Next step is a group pre-surgery class, after that I will meet the surgeon and hopefully get a date. I know the next class is July 11th and they run every second week. I have my fingers crossed that I can be in the July 11th class.

Oh great! I've got my fingers crossed too you'll be in the July 11 class. If they put you in a later class, don't forget to call for cancellations. :)

I don't know about TWH but Ottawa requires 2 group classes prior to surgery. The first is after the NP then the second class before you can meet with the surgeon. Each Centre is a little different.

No mine at TWH didn't take 3 hours....only an hour. No presurgery class.... only other class setting before surgery besides the orientation is the nutrition class.

All the best
