What will the letter ask?


Wellington Regional Hospital
A quick update, but first, and most important of all, so many heartfelt thanks for all your words, thoughts, prayers , good wishes, and suggestions. Our visit today, I didn’t have to ask/ cry/ wield a big stick,or plead. The surgeon, himself,  suggested that after all these months ( 18 long ones, if a month can be any longer than its appointed number of days) we should be referred to a  specialist in  the  spinal unit   clinic at Wellington Hospital.Maybe my many phone calls requesting this,  to his  P.A. or the other person who is really caught in the middle, have finally reached his ears. The letter will be written immediately, and we should get an appointment without too much delay.
No more news today, we are both tired, had 2 appts. at Wanganui Hospital, the second one was equally as good,
Off to bed, thankful beyond measure.I have read all your posts, probably not left a single comment,but love your news, photos and more.
Quotation of the day, author unknown
“There are seven days in the week
and someday isn’t one of them.”
Greetings from Jean

In my experience, the sooner you can be referred to a specialist for really troubling medical issues the better!

I am so far behind...it sounds as if there's been some very tough times this past year. You'll be in my thoughts with the prayer it resolves soon and completely....
