First Appointment.

After much frustration yesterday. And maybe one not so nice message left on the answering machine, Brandon finally got a call back. We have an appointment for Sawyers CATscan. May 11th. Over 30 days from the last appointment. Which means we go back for another consultation before the surgery. Which will not be scheduled until after this test now.

Its at 8 am and he is not allowed to eat 2 hrs prior to the appointment. So I will get up at 5:30 to feed him a bottle to last him into the CATscan. Hopefully it will be on time. They will be sedating him, and it is a clinic that regularly see’s babies. (side not: we cannot get the CT done at the hospital because it would not be covered by our insurance. I will never ever begin to understand the american health care system and why anyone thinks its ok for a first world country.) So we have one date. One step closer.

As you can tell this isn’t my usual fluffy positive type of a post. Its just been that kind of a day. Which we are all allowed, but especially on any day we deal with healthcare. Also it could be because I’m posting this at 1 am. (sometimes its just easier to stay up and feed him, than sleep for an hour, yell at the hubby to feed him, realize he’s just as tired, finally get up, sleep in the glider while feeding him and somehow make it back to the bed again.)

And on that note, thank you Brandon for waking up with Sawyer and letting me sleep in 2 days in a row. Thank you, thank you, thank you! It’s been magical. Enjoy it today!
