OK - I just went to the live and found the part where she talks about it. @8:55

Jenn: "Umm... we haven't had it yet. We are on the waiting list. And, I gotta be honest with you. When they told us the date that he was going to have it done, it's months and months away.
Tim: Yeah
Jenn: So I was like, what the heck?
[laughs]
Tim: Yeah, especially because the ENT was like - 'It might be sooner than you think.' And I was like, oh cool.
Jenn: Well, cuz it's such a short surgery. It takes 10 minutes. He's like - 'They can usually squeeze 'em in. It'll happen sooner.' And I was like, oh, that makes me feel so much better bc we're constantly dealing with the ear infections. He's literally on an antibiotic right now for an ear infection.
Tim: Right.
Jenn: And so, I was hoping that it would happen sooner. But yeah, um...so yeah, we just kind of waiting. We're waiting for the day. But as soon as it's done, I think he's gonna feel so much better.

So, if you were told a date "months and months away" and now you're on a "waiting list" waiting for "the day" and your kid is constantly uncomfortable, would you not seek out another location, physician, practice, option, opinion, etc. to get a sooner date?!?
I mean, how does it go from "sooner than you think" and "squeeze them in" ...to "months and months away" and an indeterminate date?
Something is missing from the story.
ETA: Often when someone prefaces something with "to be honest with you," the next thing out of their mouth is going to be a lie (or fabrication of sorts). Cuz they're trying too hard to make something sound believable. Obvs not always the case, but consider the speaker here.
Her eyes dart around a lot when she's talking about this too. Tim just pretty much stares forward at the screen.
