By a miracle, I have gotten appointments at The Chiari Institute in Great Neck, NY, December 16-18. They received my paperwork Monday and called Tuesday. This is a HUGE deal! We were expecting to have to wait until the beginning of next year, but God worked it out where I won't have to wait that long!
We have been praying that God would send me where I needed to be, and we kinda felt like this was the path we needed to be on. I had been thinking that my appointment wouldn't be until January or February at the very earliest. When I found out that it was going to be in less than 2 weeks, I wasn't sure how to feel! I was excited because I know that they possibly have the answer, but I was scared because it was NOT the answer I wanted! I'm still not quite sure how to feel!
I am very excited to go to NYC! I have never been there before and never even been on a plane! We fly into NY on the 15th, so I will be able to visit some of the places I've always dreamed of visiting! My first appointment is on the 16th, and I am getting a LOT of MRIs, CTs, etc. The next day I have appointments with the neurologist, neurosurgeon, and the nurse practioner to get my life history. On the 18th, I am going to have a test done called invasive cervical traction (ICT). Then, I come home on the 19th.
I will try to update while I am there, but if not, I will when I get home.

Is the traction test Thursday or Friday? I thought your Mom said it was Friday and then were going home the same day. ?? I just want to make sure we know when you are doing what. I gave her my cell phone number so she can call and let us know when you have completed your tests.
So who is going with you - Mom & Grandma? Is your dad staying with the little kids? Or is he with you all?
Keep me informed.
