Hurry Up and Wait
Well, Brandon didn't get to see the doctor yesterday. The paperwork and red tape is becoming unbelievable. I knew it would get messy....but for cryin' out loud, I figured they'd take into account the poor boy has a MASS in his BRAIN and maybe have some sense of urgency.
Seems I was wrong.
So....we're still waiting to see the doctor. Trust me when I tell you Dee is ALL OVER THIS. But it's all so very frustrating.

Posted by: Richmond at February 15, 2008 08:57 AMI have to say that if the doctors thought that his was a life or death situation things would have already been done.
I would take comfort that the doctors think it's ok for him to wait. (ok, I am grabbing at straws here, but it makes sense).

Posted by: Erica at February 15, 2008 09:22 AMI found your site from Sleeping Mommys site. I'll definitely say a prayer. I still remeber the day I was told my daughter had a mass in her brain. It was nearly a year ago but it feels like it was just yesterday. If you don't mind I'd like to post the link to your site on my daughter's caring bridge site.
