Checking out Oncology

Today was a good day. I got up and did all my exercises, and did a few things around the house, and then met Diane and Angie to tour the oncology facility over by Mercy Hospital. I even got to meet my oncologist in the hallway. I did not have a formal appointment with her. I had to laugh at myself (I get plenty of opportunities to do that!) Her name is Nagargoje. I assumed I would be meeting a Japanese person by the sound of the name, but she is actually of Indian (India) descent.

Not that it matters in the least, I just had to laugh at that. It was a very nice tour, and Diane got to say hi to alot of the people she knew so well when her friend, Lisa was going through this. I was impressed with the facility, and the friendliness of the people who work there.

It was just plain fun to spend a couple of hours with Diane and Angie, too!

I went home and worked on organizing my room some more...finding places to put everything. I just want to keep busy for the next week, while I wait for surgery.

My niece, Tess called this evening, and wants to do another Benefit for me over at her church in St. Paul. She is planning a spaghetti dinner and a silent auction. I am speechless.

I continually feel so blessed.

Love and Blessings to you all!
