Due to recurrent strep infections, I took Alyssa to see and ENT specialist on Tuesday. Upon examination, he declared her to be a good candidate for a tonsillectomy and went so far as to say while she was under, why don’t we go ahead and remove her adenoids too.
Sure, I declared, sign us up.
Except…they don’t schedule appointments from the clinic. See, the doctor drives up to our very small town every Tuesday to meet patients but he does his surgeries in the larger city about an hour south of here.
Okay, no problem, right?
Except those who do schedule the surgery won’t answer the damned phone.
Seriously, I spent what felt like hours on the phone yesterday, pushing 1 to hold only to hear the stupid phone ring three times and repeat the message over and freaking over again.
This morning, I actually got a real person on the line the first time I called. Wheee and away we go, let’s get this thing schedule.
But wait, the doctor we saw was Dr. W? Ohh, his surgeries are scheduled by the other girl, who is on another line. Can we take your number and have her call you back?
That was six hours ago.
I just love to hurry up and wait.

Hoping this helps! When I was a child it was recomended that I have both mine removed but never did. I've suffered from so many infections I wish they would have done the surgery.
