Teefers and doctors

Tristan got two teefers! (thats teeth, incase you didn't know) His bottom two broke through yesterday. They are so dang cute! I have tried and tried to snap a picture of them but so far all I have done is get applesauce and rice cereal all over the camera. Shucks. Anyhoo, my surgery has been postponed until next week sometime. I chose to postpone it. I was having a lot of second thoughts about the Dr and his staff. I was referred there by the ER but I just didn't feel right about it. Come to find out that my instincts where right on. They were going to have the guy who delivered me 25 years ago do my surgery, AND HE WAS NOT GOING TO DO IT LAPROSCOPICALLY! Seriously. He was gonna chop a big giant hole in me and do it the old fashioned way. In the old days didn't they make women sit on haystacks and call them witches when they had their periods? Come on, it is 2009 now! We have tiny surgical instruments that can be inserted into the belly button leaving behind virtually no scarring. Anyways, I am now seeing a different doctor and I feel a lot more comfortable here. They still think it is endometriosis and they still want to do the surgery to diagnose and treat it. I will know more on Monday. For now I am just keeping the Tampax company in business during this hard time in the economy. How nice of me, hu?

Wow Lyns scary! I'm so glad you shopped around for a doctor. I need to see cute little Tristan and his teefers. If you need a break next week or help with anything let me know!

Did you watch Grey's Anatomy last week? The same thing happened between an old fashioned doctor and a patient. He had something removed and it left this giant 10 inch scar that took forever to heal. Christina Yang thought it was crazy and turned the doctor in. The old doctor's defense was that some doctor's choose not to do things laproscopically because you can't see what you are doing as well.
