Jon’s appointment to give his leg the OK was scheduled for today, but it turned out that not only had today’s clinic been cancelled, but we went weren’t told because we had been removed from the list of patients!
The deeper I get into it, the more it appears that we are caught in a tug of war between the bureaucracies of two hospitals (Bloorview MacMillan and Sick Kids). And the scheduling person in the point position—the one person who could explain why our appointment was both altered AND cancelled without letting us know—has taken an extremely extended long weekend. Grrr. It will be at least a week before we can find out how Jon’s leg is doing.
Now I have to decide whether to start some gentle physio with Jon telling me his limits, or let it atrophy more to wait for the experts.

Well you realise why this happened. It not a well known fact but the hospital keeps track of how long a patient is in their facility. And as you were less than an hour on Aug 20th, you account had to be balanced out and hence you will need to go back twice. Just be glad you were not less than 30 minutes, other wise you might have to go back three times.
Grrr – What a Pain!
Hang in there! I would call and ask if you can do a little physio.
