Update on the dentist

I am trying very hard not to be mad.  I do feel like we have wasted a lot of time and got absolutely nowhere.  However, through these advocating years, I have come to realize that sometimes when it seems like nothing is happening, things get geared up and fast in no time flat.

I called the geneticist this week to get an appointment, the one that Dr. Wonderful Dentist referred.  First problem:  he gave me his fax number.  So I had to call the office to get the phone number.

My appointment is scheduled...for MARCH 2013.

The thing that angers me is that when we met Dr. Wonderful Dentist in May, he said for us not to call Dr. Genius Geneticist, that he will lead it all.  Well, he didn't.  In July, we were to call Dr. Genius Geneticist.  Two full months wasted.  Oh well, so I would have gotten an appointment in January, compared to March.  Time flies, that is one thing I am certain of.

BUT...do you recall that letter Dr. Wonderful Dentist was supposed to write 3 weeks ago?  Well, he still hasn't written it.  Nope, not even after I called to remind them last week.  They want to first know when I got the appointment.

Okay - I know where this is going.  Nowhere.  It is just another thing I have to add on my balance beam of life to remember to get on top of them, sometime at the end of the year, to get that letter finished in preparation for my March genetics meeting.

The only way I can spin this to be good is that the eldest was in front of Dr. Wonderful Dentist when his tooth was falling out.  He took pictures, he saw what was happening.  This is the best because right now he is all gums.

Now it is just a waiting game until March, or until the next tooth falls out.  Stay tuned....where is my 'to-do' list?  I have to make sure I mark this on there.
