Just got a call from the Plastic's office. Surgeon is unavailable on Aug 8th.
Has been changed to Aug 15th.

Just one week but I am crushed.

My date has been set since Feb.
I know things come up.

But...but...sigh...

crap.

What a bummer, I am sorry. I know that messes with your head. What about work, etc? Will it all work out?

ARGH! I hate the OH glitch that is making quick reply not wor****ep forgetting not to use it!

Anyway, I feel your pain and am sorry you have been thrown this curve ball. Does the change mess up anything you had planned- vacation time, caregiver, etc?

I talked to my surgeon's nurse yesterday. Since he is a military surgeon, **** happens, and he was called to an emergency elsewhere.. he may or may not be back for Monday. My hubby already has leave, we rushed to move, etc, just to get the TT done next week.. so hopefully it goes as scheduled.. won't find out till Fri.. Boo!

I hope things go as planned from here on out for you!

Oh no!! So sorry to hear that! As the others have said, I hope it does not cause a problem as far as work or other arrangements are concerned. Ugh!

Oh no I know exactly how your feeling.  My original date as July 17th and got a call a week earlier and was told it had to be moved to July 21st.  I was CRUSHED.  Even with it being a 4 day difference it was just so sad.  I had waited so long and then had to wait some more.
