Yesterday went great! I was at Baylor for around 6 hours and got nearly every test accomplished. The longest one was the bone scan. Did you know last week was Nuclear Science week? Whoda thunk? I got to enjoy some of the left over festivities.
That Baylor hospital runs like a finely tuned machine. The bone scan involved a radioactive dye injection, then waiting a couple hours for it to seep into the bones. They managed to get all my other tests in while the seeping was going on. I had about a gallon of blood taken for all the panels, I had an ECHO, an EKG, a stress test of sorts. Every test or blood draw was in a different building on the Baylor campus so I got to enjoy a gorgeous fall day. Then I went and climbed into the bone scan machine and napped for about an hour. All in all, a good, productive day.
Good news, the bone scan looked great! The only trauma he could see throughout my whole body was my bunions. Damn those spike heals of the 80's and 90's!

Who is that ridiculously handsome young man on the blog page from a few days back...could it be Oscar? OMG- he is not a baby anymore. Scary cute though. Get a broom to beat off the girls. They cannot be trusted.
Maureen -
Thinking about you this afternoon. I miss those random Maureen conversations..... We need to talk about those Halloween decorations on the house. Is there any scotch tape left?????

Thinking of you Maureen. So glad you have the blanket, Lori T and I both have one. We put so much Love, Courage and Hugs into it as we were all making it. You can even wash it without losing any of the love. Think of us all just sitting with you when you wrap it around you. They are great blankets for chemo.
