Okay, so after waiting 3 weeks for a referral to be sent for Nicholas from the urologist in the Sault.  Then a week after them saying it was sent.  I placed a call to the Sick Kids urology clinic and spoke with the secretary for Dr. Koyle. 

She had the referral but Dr. Koyle is on holidays for the month of July and it was just sitting there for his return.  Before I had a chance to ask if someone could look at it she told me that she was going to give it to the nurse practitioner that works with Dr. Koyle to have a look at it and she would determine the urgency for a visit.  Ahhhh sigh of relief, someone gets it!!  My next question was when would we know about an appointment date.  The answer could be today, could be next week.  I'm okay with that!!!

So an appointment in August is what it's looking like, but in that I'm also thinking, greeeaaat hockey season is starting late Aug early Sept, then school and then I get nervous for him having to have another procedure, most likely surgery, BUT I have this bad habit of getting ahead of myself, and this may be a simple fix!!! 

So I'm going to have a phone glued to my side for the next few weeks, until I know a date, place, and time, for Nicholas to be seen.  I'm Just glad that I know something is being done, but with that being said if I don't hear anything by this Thursday, a week after I made initial contact with them, I will be calling again, just to see if the referral has been looked at.  After all it is my son and I can't help but think that this is his future, his kidney function, his health, MY SON.  I'm the one that has to speak for him because he doesn't understand and I do!

Well this is all I have for tonight!!  I'm just off to bed, soon, and off to think about up coming events in my like including a family reunion, and a planned trip to marine land!
