Re: Use the Calendar to alert everyone to cast changes?

[Guest guest]

Hey everyone,

I'm seeing alot going on in February. Can we start using the Calendar option

to have an email reminder automatically sent when everyone is having a cast

done? I already entered Mo's next expansion in Texas. This would really help

me remember to pray for you all as these things are being done.

Hi ,

We will see Dr. Khoury on the 14 & 15 of Feb. We will miss you, but not my

much...if I'm not mistaking I think that and Todd MIGHT be there then. I

could be wrong though. We only live 3 1/2 hours away, so we drive and stay at

the Best Western, Carlton Suites (I think the rooms are around 110 a night.) It

is off of 65 and only a few exits away from the hospital. We usually leave the

room around 5:50 when we have to be there at 6:00. I would suggest renting a car

b/c you're not going to want to stay in your hotel room the whole time you're

not w/Dr. Khoury. Plus like mentioned, the car seat might be an issue.

There are lots of shopping areas around town as well as restaurants. Try to

enjoy yourself. The trip will be stressful enough. You will want to find things

that help Finn enjoy himself as well, and make him feel comfy

As far as the hospital goes, all of the staff are really nice, but still a

little new to the casting thing. We have found that if we have any questions

about the cast itself, to ask or Dr. Khoury directly. That's usually what

the nurses end up doing anyway!

We are always out of the hospital by noon. Of course that all depends on how

Finn reacts to the anesthesia. Some kiddos can't keep anything down and some are

fine. I hope everything goes great for you and Finn. Will you have someone else

going with you? Best of Luck!

great advise I have recieved from all of

you, Finn (19 months 60 degrees) and I have an appointment with Dr

Khoury for a clinic day on February 27th and if all goes well casting

on February 28th. I was hoping that whoever sees Dr Koury could share

with us some basic information. We are going to fly in to Birmingham

on the morning of the 27th. sent me a list of Hotels. Which one

is closest and most convenient to the hospital? Should we rent a car

or take a taxi? How is the hospital? Also, should we stay another

night after the casting?

Is anyone else scheduled on those days? Finn is currently in a brace

so I am hoping that the adjustment will be easy on him.

Thanks for the support and help.
