Asking for Disser Prayers for a Co Worker and Manager who was killed today in a tragic car crash !!!
last week I took my 8 year old daughter to the pediatrician to have her back looked at. She had been complaining of back pain for about a week. Today, I get a voicemail message from a random doctor on base telling me that I need to get her over to Pediatric ortho. The x-rays showed something. That is all I could make out from the message. Everything else was distorted!!! AAAHHHHHHHHH. So, I call the pediatric department and guess what....I get put on TERMINAL HOLD! 20 minutes goes by and guess what.......STILL ON HOLD!!!!!! Finally I get an answer. I give all of the info that I have and she tells me that she can't tell me anything but she will put a telephone consult in for me but to be ready for a wait because they might not contact me back until next week! WHAT??? Let me get this straight: I get a distorted message telling me to call asap to schedule the appointment but noone can tell me what is going on? Insanity.
So I call Ped. Ortho and they look at the referral and see that we need the first appointment they have so they get Kat scheduled for Tuesday! We will have the appointment before we know what is going on. That is crazy!
Talk about frustrations. Not only are we waiting to hear when our 4 year olds next CT Scan will be and if there will be another Neurosurgery to follow but now we also have to deal with something that is wrong with our 8 year olds back too? Really? All at once? Don't they know I am trying to move to Florida right now?
Sorry for the rant but, this really ticks me off. Military healthcare isn't all that it is cracked up to be!
I'm surprised we're still on the same thread! Sorry I've been MIA, life has just been too crazy and am usually too tired to sit in front of the computer most days.
Stay warm to those in the snowy states

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JoJo!
Tink was sick...very sick! I think that I just may have gotten it. I had a fever last night and the icky, cough is starting.
I'm going to head to the minute clinic this morning whilst Tink is at Kindy, to ensure that I don't have the "flu". We are heading to Mexico in 3 more sleeps! I don't want to be sick!
Hubs is back in Arkansas and I get the fun pleasure of flying to MX on my own with the kids.
