****. I am starting to realize how vulnerable I will be soon, with a little one.
Case in point: our specialist has been trying to get us an OB since March. This process involves calling a phone # and leaving a message and faxing the hospital in question. There is no way to follow up on a response.
So on Thursday evening, Joan woke me up sobbing for not having heard back. She does this - defers stress until it boils over. I didn't know what to do so Friday I went to the hospital in person before it opened... and it worked ! A few more calls and emails connected the fax-ers to the fax-ees and we have an appointment.
I am pissed off, though, that such a simple and yet crucial process takes weeks, and requires an in-person visit. Another thing: FAX
How much time is wasted with that. If you saw the fax we received, it's abhorrent in its indescipherability...
