OK so I just typed a 15 minute rant and it disappeared. Let me try again now that my fury is spent. :) We had to take my little guy to Primary Children's ER on Friday for a long painful change of a g-tube--the little thing he gets all his food and fluid from. It took us three hours to be seen (understandable--my kids was just hungry the other kids were really sick or hurt) Then 6 more hours to get the tube changed and get us out of there. Then they told us we needed to be "followed"--a word here which means seen regularly by a doctor or nurse regarding the specific problem or foreign device. I've been trying to get someone to see me regarding this for the last year and half since we moved here. So I called this morning and she told me that I can call back on the 13th to make an appointment in June. Umm I'm having a baby sometime around then so that is going to be tricky. It's so frustrating because in Denver they'd have told us to stop by when we were down for another appointment. The appointment usually takes about 5 minutes at worst 15. It's just ridiculous. I'd always heard such great things about Primary's, but so far my experience with them hasn't been great. In fact, most of the time I'm just really angry about it. Wade keeps trying to convince me not be cynical about them--tricky for a someone with a cynical nature. It's harder still when they keep rewarding the cynic. What's a girl to do? It's so frustrating from waiting an hour past an appointment to be seen to not being able to get in for months and months even though I've been told this new tube needs to be changed every 3-4 months. Anyway, thanks for reading.
