Waiting for Surgery date

Dennis had his Doctors appointment last Friday .We were told the person who schedule's was busy doing other things so to expect a surgery date on Monday. Monday we call and the scheduler states - I have to schedule for 5 doctors so you will know by Tuesday afternoon. Dennis told them we have no restrictions and to schedule it as soon as possible. She replied most likely the end of September. In the mean time Dennis is healing from the Colitis and still has a few more days on three powerful antibiotics. Today we went for a 45 minute walk for the first time in 2 weeks since all of this started. Waiting , Waiting ......
