GOT A SECOND OPINION APPT SET UP! just made this a.m. on 6/16. having records released hopefully smoothly this time...

feel a little more "in control" if there is such thing, and certainly feel that another opinion will make me feel more at ease. interestingly, this doctor, although at another hosp. now, did work at my present hospital's dept not too long ago.
today, now that i have a date, started to go over more things with my boss' in terms of my absence. still other sort of stressy details to consider, mostly - my older son's camp ends the very first week of august, which leaves him the rest of the summer with yours truly and my sister-in-law. am going to look into finding another camp for a couple of weeks after his gets out, probably better for him anyhow (i am boring, even under the best of circumstances : ) my mom is planning to come for surgery and stay a week, my step mom the 2nd week and my mom is willing to come back the 3rd if needed (hopefully NOT!) how are things your way going???????? great i hope : ) marieka
