DAY 176 - 12/08/2010 - Geraldton, WA

We went to see Lilly's surgeon today at the private hospital. What a waste of time that was. I really don't want to waste my blog on that idiot of a man but I must report the good with the bad.

He ripped off Lilly's dressing with enough force to take some skin with it. Breifly looked at it from a distance and he said he was happy with it. Then he stuck the smallest dressing, sticky side right on the wound itself. We were not happy with this and told him so. Waz took his dressing off and we replaced it with a better one that I had brought with me. He was totally pissed that we took over in his surgery while he looked on telling us to hurry up because he had other patients to see. Oooooow you don't say that to 2 pissed off, sometimes hotheaded parents. Well I am happy to report we kept our cool, told him Lilly was important to us and that we didn't care about his other patients and continued on doing what we were doing. The westie in us was about to erupt but we stood our ground and came out the better person. There are things I would like to say here but this blog is G rated.

We ended up taking Lilly to the hospital to get her dressing done properly and do the job the surgeon was supposed to do. The nurses are aware of his poor manners and are used to his behaviour. All I can say is he's lucky that he didn't have to perform surgery on himself extracting teeth from the back of his throat.

Waz's toe is getting worse and we finally found a good doctor to look at it and gave him antibiotics to treat the infection. He also swabbed all of us to see who else was carrying this dreadful infection and eradicate it once and for all.

Back to the van for a quick and easy dinner then over to Chris and Rod's to play cards and have a few drinks.
