Yesterday morning, Jill and I decided we were on the road to nowhere. A call to Dr. Pippas and an explanation of the depth of my exhaustion and the severity of my pain sent us packing to the beautiful, newly-renovated and improved E.D.

We leave tomorrow morning for a quick trip to Emory for a follow up on my radiosurgery with Dr. Liza Stapleford. I had an MRI without contrast media last week. Since Dr. Pippas ordered the MRI, he’ll have to give the OK for the radiology department at The Medical Center to release a disk containing [...] [...] Let me say right up front that it was shocking for me to see what a fat ass I am on television. And, knowing that I was going to look like a fat ass and still charging forward with this, shows just how much I wanted to make this helicopter flight happen for that sweet [...] [...] Go ahead and call me a big ol’ p–sy (pansy), but in spite of a surprisingly strong desire to experience the upcoming radiosurgery treatment awake so I can write about it on this blog, I have taken the offer from Dr. Stapleford to have the treatment under anesthesia.

I had been up and down all night the night before Thanksgiving with the turkey and Jill did a [...] [...] Finally got word from Dr. Liza Stapleford this tonight around 7 p.m. that her caucus with Dr. Hadjapanayis confirmed that the radiosurgery has been green lighted. So it is on to Fry Day (a little radiation therapy humor). Dr. S says that someone will call me on Monday to set up the CT simulation and [...] [...] Women supposedly speak about 20,000 words per day, a number that is exactly 13,000 more words than the average man speaks during that same day. That means around about 160,000 words are spoken in our office each day by the eight women who are here every day. Another 80,000 are spoken by four other women [...] [...] |
