Today is a day of ... continuation

I went to see Dr. Hawker today to renew my morphine prescription. The results from my mammogram and ultrasound had arrived so we dealt with that as well. She is a nice woman - I used to dislike her because she used to hassle me about my weight but she is very kind when you are dealing with something serious. She told me not to worry but...
Apparently the mammogram and ultrasound both showed a shadowy area that they can't quite diagnose. It could well be cancer or it could be nothing. So the next step is a biopsy under ultasound. Once before, I had a fine wire localization using mammogram. This is similar but no anaesthetic and ultrasound to visualize which is much more comfortable that using mammography. Progress is sometimes worthwhile.

It may take a while to get that done so meanwhile I look forward to a trip to the coast to visit my friend Trish and then a nice visit with Esther. I will finally get to see their new home.

Shaw cable was just here to set up a new digital box for me and also activate the cable in the basement as well as set up that cable box. So now both Rob and I will have digital TV. I am also going to have my telephone through Shaw cable. Get it all in one bundle and hopefully save a little money.

I am going to go and lie down for about a half hour or so and then Rob and I have to go shopping for baseboard and paint. Ta Ta for now.
