Just like that I'm being referred!!

Hello everyone, thank you for all your support. I had a phone call today to let me know that I'm being referred to Torbay hospital. I just have to wait for a letter with appointment info. But, I do understand that Torbay has a 17 week waiting list, which I don't mind waiting for because I now know that I'm in the system.
