2004 Story Set
| Date: Sept 20, 2004 First they said Wednesday --- last week. Then they called and said not yet. Then we were told Friday - at the earliest - and Maybe Monday. So we tried to get the 6 lady barbecue on for last weekend - and could get connected. So Monday rolls around - kid is still active - but it's been a week. This is not good. He needs watching. I stayed home, and tried to reach someone. Email. Phone calls, We left for lunch (Target and Togo's) and came back - nada. I have a bad feeling about this. So I emailed the dr who is transferring us. I will give them 4 hours. He in turn called the clinic people we are going to. By 5PM, I had an email from the dr. I had contacted that we were due in on Tuesday Morning - and get a pick line by 9:30AM. And, by the way, they (the new doctors) should have called us by now. So I called them - and bounced all over the place again in voice mail hell. No one answers the phone. If the hospital was a business, I would have heads rolled. The rule is - three rings - SOMEONE gets it! And emails should come back within 4 hours. Business rules. So, after emailing the dr back that I had called, then I got a call. She hadn't received my phone messages, and she had left a message at WORK! I was home with the child! I cannot check voice mail at work from home! I am a contractor. So ---- we now have directions. And he needs to pack - I think. It's and early morning call - so I rushed to the kitchen and made the last of the Snickerdoodles he had requested. Nothing beats a warm cookie. And he put in the Soul Plane DVD. Oh Lord! I think I'll eat the leftover cheesecake. |
