"When you hear hoofbeats behind you, you don't expect to see a zebra". The color for rare diseases is zebra. If zebra can be a color. I guess most doctors do not look past the horses to see the lone zebra. The zebra with the rare disease.

Surgery is a Go!

Talked with Laura at Dr. F's office today.  She actually answered the phone, didn't need to leave a voicemail.  Surgery is a go on September 12th.  It will be at 10:00 with arrival time at 8:00.  It is in Dallas, so the drive won't be bad, just 40 minutes.  In Texas, 40 minutes is just around the corner.  She is also sending me a packet of information.  I asked about pre-op and she said it is done over the phone.  I think that is a little strange.  I can't wait to sit again for more than 15 minutes at a time.  I know I will need to be patient during recovery and I will. :)
