Guest guest Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 Happy Birthday Suzie Love, hugs, prayers, and peace, Marie -- Birthday Surprise Thank you everybody for all the Birthday wishes, I'm so happy I know all of you. Guess what I found in the mail this morning. A liver transplant handbook & appointments in September with the t p team. I'm going to have to cancel the stress test cause I have to be in London (Ontario, not England) having a chest x-ray and ultrasound. I'm getting a little worried, they will be re-doing tests I've already had & my referring doctor is out of reach til the 8th. I have to get a doctor to fill out a form for Disability to pay for the trip & I don't know if they pay for room & board while I'm there. The T P Centre sent a list of reasonably priced hotels & the prices range from $49/night to $87/night. I don't have that kind of money. That's reasonable?????????? Then there is food & transportation. I am not happy. I'm going to forget about it right now & remember it IS my birthday. Love you all, SuZie Next time I'm coming back as a cat Created by DvD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 Suzie, Someone else had this same situation a while back. I THINK there is some organization that will help pay for the room. Maybe check with the hospital....it is (not haha) funny, but you would think even healthy people that deal with us would remember $50.00 and meals,, (what...say, $20.00 a day?), is a boatload of money to us. Call your TP co-ordinator for some guidance, maybe... Any local Groups/Churches available? As far as the second set of tests, I think it's standard. They did it to me too. I think it's so they can make sure your still fit enough, and to Cover their ARSES... It's not because you did bad on the first ones, I think. I thought that maybe I didn't do so well on 'em, but that was not the case. If you would like peace of mind regarding this, call your co-ordinator (or contact) and have then pull your files and ask them why you are doing this again?
