Oh boy oh boy oh boy! That appointment in Colorado helped me get into the Calgary specialist! granted that was an expensive way to speed up the process but I will not have to sell my house or children to afford surgery to fix my body.
YAY
A lot happened. My appointment was first thing in the morning, and being winter of course we dont want to risk driving up to Calgary at 4am in a blizzard. So My sweet sister in law took our kids for the night and we went up monday night for tuesday am appointment.
It snowed the whole drive. What normally takes two and a half hours too almost five! but we made it safely and were so tired when we finally got to the hotel we decided against leaving until morning.
Come the morning there was ANOTHER 8 inches of snow to clear off of the vehicle! Don't we keep things interesting?
That's just how we do.
Cross town traffic make it to the hospital to meet with this doctor. I got so lost, and somehow I still made it to the right place in time for my appointment. Filled out the same form for the 7th time, and got to waiting.
Surprise I got to hear about how young I am again. BUT they read the reports from the previous doctors (all 6 of them) and did their own exam. And completely agreed with what needs to happen.
I signed the paperwork for surgery, and set up an appointment for urodynamics testing to see just how much of everything needs to happen. I'd been warned about needing that before having surgery so to be able to schedule it before leaving brought some relief!
The next week I got a call to schedule my surgery!

OH WELL its still what I need.
