British Columbia Sleevers

[onmywaytohealthy73 23]

Hi there, the BC sleevers thread was getting slow so I thought I'd try a new one.

Happy 2017 to all

I started my journey March 2015 when my referral went in through the Richmond, BC program. December 15 was my orientation...things moved quite quickly and I met with the surgeon yesterday and got a date for surgery, January 23

I hope anyone else going through the process would like to keep in touch and we can offer support to each other.

Hi Onmyway - I am from up north in BC and am wondering how you are doing? How did your surgery go?

Hi there, I'm in Vancouver and still waiting for my first consult so way behind you, Onmyway, but I'm also wondering how everyting went and how your are doing.

Looking forward to seeing a post.

Also, hello to up north!

Hi I'm not in BC but@ Lesliesbari is still active and lives in mountains, does the Rockies go into B.C.? Otherwise there are,2 active in Alberta, Mrs Gamgee is in Red Deer and there's another who's in Calgary. The rest of Canadians seem to be in Ontario.

Hi Kakatlady!

Yes, most Canadians seem to be in Ontario in general!

The Rockies are in BC but on the eastern side so not close as I'm on the coast, but closer than Alberta and Ontario.

Thanks for connecting and I'll keep an eye out for the others.

I was in BC for the Centennial of Confederation. Visited Vancouver, Campbell River and spent a week on Quadra Island where my penpal lived. All beautiful, I'd love to see Vancouver again and I never did get to Victoria, I would have loved to see the Gardens there.

Canadians seem to be few and far between around here for sure. I would hazard a guess it's because our programs run significantly slower (I'm 9 months in and no indication of when I'll get surgery... still hoping for a 2018 date) and it can be a little frustrating to watch others get their surgery so much quicker.

The other Alberta one is Nossida, she just popped up on one the threads I was reading. I'm watching the Olympics, figure skating and bobsled, tonight. I love to watch the Netherlands speedskaters they make it look so effortless.
