Sigh. And his doctor is not returning my emails...<br /><br />Hopefully if Luiz just arrives much later he will wait less.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14003236423048071844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7043287896001157919.post-73925480776012182762011-07-05T00:31:32.947-03:002011-07-05T00:31:32.947-03:00I am glad you are both doing so well, but reading ...I am glad you are both doing so well, but reading about Luiz's ordeal makes me feel so bad...some days are like that for our patients and I usually try to bring in extra magazines and put them out and make sure they have bottled water to drink. When people have been stuffed together and waiting all day, they get very frustrated and almost always someone gets fed up - sometimes a fight even erupts!Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10213315358914821886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7043287896001157919.post-52692406564427127992011-07-04T10:48:47.094-03:002011-07-04T10:48:47.094-03:00So glad you are both doing so well!

Thanks for updating, and may you calm enough to be allowed back one day so Luiz doesn't have to endure that wait all alone!The Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03090284449975514483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7043287896001157919.post-14012352596676658852011-07-02T16:42:10.192-03:002011-07-02T16:42:10.192-03:00Hey Jim,
Great news!
It makes me really ...Hey Jim,<br /><br /> Great news! <br /> It makes me really angry that they have to be so difficult!! Why stop colecting blood at 8am??? So they can nap the rest of the day?<br />what? They only have one person that does everything, the same nurse that draws blood works in the lab processing all the work? I don't see a practical, reasonable reason they have to offer such limited times for their service. <br /> They should be available 9 to 5 like any normal lab, What the hell!<br /> And set an appointment for 2pm and be seen at 4:30pm!!! Again, what's wrong with this people! How hard is it to set up an appointment and keep it? <br /> I don't blame you at all for being mad at these jerks, I agree with Sara, you really love Luiz and it's not easy to keep quiet when you see your loved one going thru this kind of abuse.<br /> I have gotten in trouble for doing exactly the same thing when I saw Gil being mistreated at the doctor's office in Cambridge.<br /> These kind of things make me feel like moving back to Brazil and running for office to make sure these things don't happen anymore.<br /> These people need to get something in their hard heads, THEY WORK FOR YOU! YOU PAY THEM! They are not making you a favor! <br /> Glad to hear you two are doing good!<br /><br />RayAmerican Heart Brazilian Soulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11049937328816904295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7043287896001157919.post-71487588697386667672011-07-02T14:41:15.449-03:002011-07-02T14:41:15.449-03:00Glad both of you are doing well!Glad both of you are doing well!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7043287896001157919.post-23987218435322237732011-07-02T11:33:41.428-03:002011-07-02T11:33:41.428-03:00Great news x 2!Great news x 2!Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08406213044166973862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7043287896001157919.post-266916092332387852011-07-02T11:22:29.730-03:002011-07-02T11:22:29.730-03:00Glad to hear that both of you are continuing the p...Glad to hear that both of you are continuing the path of good health! I had to laugh at the fact you are banned from the appointments- It's hard not to be defensive for a loved one :) I think it shows you really care.<br /><br />Sara<br /><br />PS- Are you taking weekly photos of yourself? Not that you have to post them but it would be a good idea that way you can see the progress you have made. It may not seem important now but when the weight loss starts to taper off it will help with motivation that you have accomplished so much. Make sense? Thinking of you!SNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17460572927503679630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7043287896001157919.post-2656775838583096892011-07-02T09:48:07.158-03:002011-07-02T09:48:07.158-03:00At public hospitals, they normal put the more at r...At public hospitals, they normal put the more at risk or urgent patients first. Like where I gave birth to Luka, I was always one of the last ones in until my last month. By then I was considered priority... finally! <br /><br />Congrats on Luiz's heath and yours! 30lbs! Holy Crap! I think you should wear a name tag to the blogger meet up because we are not going to recognize you!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13209527132116902328noreply@blogger.com
