Wouldn't it be better to wait?
I also have a personal question about Mercury retrograde. And my period (I mean the little black dot at the end of sentences) isn't working so well, so forgive me if some are missing.
My daughter and I are both chronically ill. She is a senior in high school. FOr the past three years she has ad some minor accommodations, but they haven't been enough. She's very bright, but her junior year her grades really tanked. She is a very enthusiastic student, however, and is very interested in many things -- science, physics, anthropology, especially evolutionary anthropology, politics, government, writing, and art -- mostly drawing. And music. And law.
She doesn't know what she wants to do.
We were forced to change doctors over the summer, thanks to our health insurance refusing to pay our old doctor, who specializes in this damned disease.
We have to go to a meeting at the school to arrange for these minor accommodations, which haven't been enough in the past. We can get more extreme ones, but that will take time.
When we had this meeting, someone had retired, and there was a new person sort of in charge of this process. She found the letter from the doctor -- essentially the same letter that had been used for years -- not acceptable. It wasn't on letterheard (the doctor did it himself at home; he has essentially no office staff, just a receptionist); and it wasn't specific, it didn't make precise requests, it made recommendations.
So, she said it had to be on letterhead. That was one, but made no difference. Then I had to get specific requests.
THat meeting was scheduled for Monday. I'm not sure if it was confirmed. (Thanks to Mercury, I guess.) But should we go ahead with it, or wait until after Mercury goes direct? I've been having a terrible time dealing with this whole problem. It's been like pulling teeth to get anything from the doctor, as he doesn't have office staff, his office isn't on line, and he doesn't do anything by email. He has limited office hours and is very difficult to get through to. But there aren't many doctors around here who treat this disease who also accept insurance.
Sorry for the long story. It just did occur to me that some of the trouble might be the Mercury retrograde business.
Thanks.
