Friend is a huge devotee of all things leopard. Today was my day to engage in medical scans. I teased her about me wearing a leopard hat. She showed up right on time and yup, she brought three leopard hats. And she had one on her head. Adorable.
I put that silly leopard bucket on my head and headed in- first to give ALL my info to the nice intake lady and also to give her access to my bank so she could withdraw $150.00 for one of the scans. She couldn't find the larger bill so I said fine. Two nurses approached me with two paper cups- at least 10 ounces each. I had to drink that contrast yummy before I was taken in to have more contrast injected.
I made it through the first scan then was told we had two hours to wait for the next one. The longer one. Friend took me to a nice local coffee shop. I had barely eaten that morning so I indulged in a pumpkin muffin. We got back to the hospital a little early so we walked around, found the outside memorial garden- very meditative and nice. We also found the tiny chapel.
The final scan was long. At least forty minutes BUT the tech put music on from Youtube. I chose Celtic folk. That helped a bunch.
Now I am flat out tired and thinking about a vegetarian Dominos pizza. Wish I could sleep.

I know you dreaded this day...what a gem your friend is, to make it better in every way she could. I hope you can eat some of your pizza and maybe you can rest. I'm glad this day is over for you, Lenore.

I'm glad you made it through the scans okay and you can have anything you want before you climb in bed and snooze the night away. Sleep tight!
