The Saga of Alison's Finger

So.

Alison's finger is still swollen and sore because it may have a hairline fracture. The second x-ray was taken last Wednesday, and I never heard a thing until I called today. We have to pop in to Picton for Alison to have her finger properly immobilized at 8:30 tomorrow morning. They are making noises now that she may have to see someone in orthopedics. Say it isn't so. And I am slightly miffed that they didn't call when they received results; perhaps then I wouldn't have sent Alison off to work and riding lesson this morning. Oops.

This BEFORE the 2+ hour drive in to downtown Toronto to take her to the Hospital for Sick Children. She has had an ongoing issue for the last year, and her clinic appointment has finally materialized. She will be seeing a pediatric nephrologist tomorrow. I don't think this is going to be a big deal; she has had an ultrasound all ready that ruled out most of the big. scary. options.

AND, if she wasn't spending enough time loitering at hospitals, the Board of Education FINALLY called in for more information re: her hearing loss. She has to go to Hotel Dieu in Kingston at the end of April to get a full audiology report (her last was at age 3; although there can be no change in the report, they wish to have a current report for their files). Another day of school lost.

Alison is less than impressed.

After our Sick Kids visit, the kids and I are off to visit Mom and Dad in Burlington! We're looking forward to that :-).
