Wed 12/04/13 - Dr Schusse update on neurologist

So as I was driving to California with my mom on our mom/daughter trip - I received a call from Dr. Schusse.  She stated that she had spoken with Jennifer at CRS and also to Breck's case worker.  She was told to put some more information together and write a letter as to why the continuity of care was so important to Breck at this time.

Dr. Schusse reassured me that Dr. Johnsen was a very good choice - that she knew of him personally, yet --- it would be best if Breck switched over a couple months AFTER surgery when she was more stable.  That the timing is very bad right now.  She was going to do all she could to try and get approved to see Breck a little longer.

Dr. Schusse also calmed my heart by saying that Breck really didn't need to have an office visit before surgery - that the office visit AFTER surgery would be more critical.

And - also to our relief - Dr. Schusse was able to send over prescriptions that Breck needed.  I was so worried as her refills had run out and she was almost out of meds with no way to see a neurologist!

So - all in all - the conversation was good.  I am constantly amazed at the goodness of these doctors who would go to bat for Breck while knowing full well that she would not STAY as their patient.
