In Limbo...

To give you an update about Sutter so far, here goes...

I've already had an appointment with my Primary Care Physician (PCP) and LOVE, LOVE, LOVE her. Dr. Dana Hawkins is her name and she spent over an hour with me last week. She went over my entire history and by the time I left, I felt like we were old pals. I brought in a list of Oncologists and Surgeons that Sonia said were top of the line. Sonia knows many people in Sutter and wanted to make my transition as smooth as possible. Thank you Sonia. Anyway, Dr. Hawkins said that if she were to make a list herself, she would have made the same list! She was very impressed, and although it was hard for her to choose, she put in referrals based on her gut instincts. My surgeon, Dr. Jay Owens, has already made me an appointment on Monday, 5/23, but don't worry Sonia, it won't interfere with the GLEE concert because it's in the morning. However, my Oncologist, Dr. Niti Rohatgi's office is driving me nuts. First they won't make me an appointment until my records are transferred over. To expedite matters, I personally walked my records over to their office on Monday. I called yesterday and again this morning to speak with somebody about making me an appointment for chemo and they've given me the run around. If I were to continue on with Kaiser, I would be receiving chemo this Friday. I would like to stay on my schedule. I NEED to stay on my schedule. It doesn't seem to be of importance to this office, at least that's how I'm feeling at the moment and it's driving me crazy. It's as though nobody is listening. I sure hope it gets better. Right now I'm missing Dr. Hui :( I need a dose of my own advise and sure enough as I was typing this, John walked in and told me to listen to my own words, that it's going to be alright. That everything will work itself out, not to worry. It sure is hard sometimes to just sit back and have FAITH, and that's what I need to do.

Thanks for listening.

Peace to you all ♥ Love, Genie
