On Halloween we were in San Jose.Tio had left that morning very early! I had an eye doctor’s appointment at Cima at 5pm. We also had brought a new gtube to change in my tummy. My parents always like to do change it in San Jose in case of a hiccup! It is a good thing we did as for some reason the water would not come out of my release valve and mom and dad could not pull the old gtube out and put the new in. Thankfully two doctors answered my mom’s text messages and said they would help us out but we would have to wait to do the gtube switch!
Maria came to the hotel to hang out with me while mom and dad did some running around. Maria Jose, had decided that I needed to have a Halloween outfit! She came to the hotel with a red dress. The same red dress she wore when she was three years old! Mom said I looked like a drum major so that is what I was on Halloween. The dress she brought was so well kept that it still looked brand new! We had fun playing dress up together!! 🙂
On our way to the eye Dr’s appointment their office called ten minutes before we pulled into the hospital parking lot for our appointment only to tell us that the doctor had not yet arrived.. This was our 4th attempt to see her and we were not happy that we were not going to be seen today. We turned around and headed back to the hotel only to find ourselves sitting in traffic for an hour due to a three car pile up! 🙁 The secretary offered to change our appointment to the next day.. Thankfully we were still going to be in town, but none of us were happy about having to sit in rush hour traffic.. We were not sure if we were ever going to see the doctor!
We got back to the hotel 1.5 hour later, it should have taken us 10 minutes! Oh well!! Patience is a virtue right? 😉 I was exhausted and went to bed after dinner.. Tomorrow we head to see Dr. Navarro at 9am to change out my gtube and hopefully to finally see the Eye doctor in the afternoon. It has only taken me taken me over a year to see her! Tomorrow is a busy day but I know it will be a success!
