Guest guest Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 ee - hang in there, hope you are on the mend. Nasty business, broken pelvis - I feel for you very much! I was wondering what new baby boy's name was and you have answered my question - love the name Garrison! It's a strong name - really great. When you are feeling up to it, would love to hear abut your expert opinion on the severity of Garrisons' feet and how they look to you. But absolutely no rush on that. Take care. number23 wrote: Hi All, I have Garrison's appointment with Dr. Mecuende set for March 29th in Iowa He will be be 21 days old starting treatment provided nothing else goes wrong around here.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 , RMH will call you the morning of your scheduled stay. If they don't have rooms, they will give you a hotel voucher. Kind of flying by the seat of your pants but after my tiny Angel Flight plane experiences, the whole trip felt that way to me. LOL Carol Re: March 29 Hi ee! Congratulations!

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 Bless your heart! I relate having so many little people to take care of. Hope you get things in order so you can feel good about the trip.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 Hang in there ee! Easier said then done I know. One thing I have seen with you is you process the news, then come back up fighting and with a plan. Those are good survival skills. We are thinking of you. I love the name Garrison. I'm technologically challenged so I could not see his pictures, but I'm sure he is beautiful.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 Well we won't be there of course, but you could always drive through STL on your way and stop by and say hi! Hope things are starting to get a little easier and that you will have at least a little time to enjoy that sweet baby boy more. Send us some more pics when you get a chance. allison -- In nosurgery4clubfoot , " number23 " wrote: > > Hi All, > > I have Garrison's appointment with Dr. Mecuende set for March 29th in Iowa He will be be 21 days old starting treatment provided nothing else goes wrong around here.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 WooHoo ee. Finally a name! (unless you posted before and I didn't notice) I love the name Garrison...very diplomatic. Good that you waited a while to start treatment. Get yourself better so you have a clear mindset. Best of luck to you and the new little guy. number23 wrote: Hi All, I have Garrison's appointment with Dr. Mecuende set for March 29th in Iowa He will be be 21 days old starting treatment provided nothing else goes wrong around here.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 Wow thanks for the important reminder! I have not contacted the RMD to be put on the waiting list! Must do that NOW! haha The way it works, you get put on a waiting list for that date you request to check in; it's first come, first serve. Say you called at 10 a/m requesting you get a room April 1st, and I called later that evening requesting a room on April 1st - well you're on the list ahead fo me and would get the room. However, if you didn't show up for whatever reason, the room is given to the next person on the waiting list, so if you're running late it's good to call and tell them you're late but on yoru way so they'll try to hold t for you. On the other hand, if the family occupying the room ahead of us doesn't leave, then they are NOT kicked out for us. Say they got bad news and had to stay longer, they are guarenteed that room for as long as they need it and we're just bumped down the list until a vacancy occurs. It's all pretty straight forward. I'll tell ya though, if you just plan to travel back and forth staying only one night at a time, motels are a lot easier!!! They cost about twice as much in cash, but for ease it's worth the money. At RMD you have to clean your room, change your bedding, sweep your floors, etc., to leave it prepared for the next family and it's a lot of work to do before heading out the door. There's also a ton of paper work to registering there to stay, and fees for parking permits if you drive your own car. When we go for check ups we get motels. But for the long haul of casting we'll use the RMd. Someone suggested an idea I did like - they said stay at the RMD until your next to the last day, then clean yoru room adn go bunk in a motel so you can just load your car and leave the next day with out the hassell of cleaning up. s.
