Patience: n. A minor form of dispair, disguised as a virtue

PCP finally got labs and referral to surgeon today...I asked the coordinator to let me know when she submits to insurance.

Of course my mom now wants all of us to come for Easter (the 31st) which is a 14hr drive for us with all the stops we have to make. So maybe its best to have it in April.

Oh yeah... Ouch. That would be a very long ride, and a dangerous one considering the heightened risk of blood clots after surgery! Best to go for April... Like make her come back with you so you can go as soon as you can get home... But April!

Yes and I'm the long distance driver in our family! My hubs rarely does any of the driving!

We drive back and forth from Phoenix to San Diego at least once every month or two to visit my family (that's how we'll go for my surgery in fact and just drop the girls off with my parents and sister). I tend to go a lot with just the girls when the hubby works 4 days straight, so I know how a lot of driving can take a toll on your body and that's less than half your drive time!! Best to be safe for sure.
