Accepted! and waiting

We arrived home from a vacation to a letter that said Cecilia was accepted. So excited we have made another step. Oh, but wait. We have to wait over two months to get in for her evaluation. Why does everything in the medical field take to long? Fortunately for you blog readers the appointment is coming up at the end of July.

Shriners Application

It turned out that we had to apply to Shriners. I think at least a month passed before we even were contacted. Needless to say we probably called to check on the process half a dozen times. Just call us back and we will leave you alone.

So, we filled out the application and waited.

New Pediatrician

So, we finally changed pediatricians at the beginning of the year. Yes, I am behind in posts, but we have a new addition to the family and she is now four months old.

I really like the new doctor. He actually had an opinion on eating organic food and what sunscreen ingredients that we should avoid. These are important things to me, but I have never had our conventional doctor have an opinion.

The appointment was pretty straight forward. He thought Cecilia was doing great, but understood we felt like we could be doing more. After talking through a few options he said he would like to send us to Shriners. I don't know anything about their program, but I am open to try anything.
