Testing, testing . . .

Today was full of tests and phone calls. I got the blood work and chest x-ray done, as well as the bone scan. Then we got home and the phone rang a couple of times to be sure we knew that I’m scheduled for a cat scan at 6:30 in the morning and then an appointment with the surgeon at 10:15. I hope she has all the reports back to her in time to read them and clear me for surgery on Wednesday. They are holding a slot for me in surgery, but they won’t schedule everyone in until between 3 and 5 tomorrow afternoon. By the time I write the blog tomorrow night, I’ll know if surgery is on or off and be sure to tell you.

For now I’m still in ‘Limbo’ waiting to see what they tell me. I fully expect them to clear me for surgery. The doctor’s office was really scurrying today to get me scheduled for all these tests at the last minute. They are planning to do surgery on Wednesday, and will only postpone it if they see something on these tests that indicates they should wait. I really believe it will all be good for me to go on Wednesday. Pray with me that their computers stay up and running!

The pictures on the blog today are the dining room and the bathroom at the apartment. How blessed are we to have this apartment! We could not have made all the tests today and tomorrow would have to start way early if we were coming from Doris’ house! Certainly we could have been at Judy’s, but I’d hate to get them up at all hours to get us off to tests! Aki has a horrendous enough schedule! (And Judy, too, keeping up with us, not to mention Aki!

I thanks God for family and friends!
