Freaky Friday

Got up early and went to St George. I had a 9:00 am appointment with the radiation doctor. His name is Dr Hyde and is really nice and professional. We got everything set up and all my measurements done as well as my tattoo marks. They acted like putting the tattoo marks on was going to kill me but I just laughed. I barely felt it. The head radiation techs name was Joe and he was really funny. I was sure he was gay and then he started talking about his wife and kids so ?. I liked him a lot and so he made it kind of fun. If a CAT scan can ever be called "fun". Anyway it was $7,000.00 for today's appointment and the money is just adding up. I really don't worry about it as I have paid all I can and I can never pay the rest cause it's well over $200,000.00 and counting so whatever. That part is of very little interest to me as we are so pathetic as a country that we fight against taking care of ourselves over giving money away to the rich. It is so ignorant to me that I can barely stand it. So I just laugh and go to treatment and see the scores of other patients in the same situation that I am discussing the problem and shaking our heads at the lack of real understanding in this country as to what is actually going on.

We came home and Cliff worked in the new room awhile. I got us a sub sandwich for lunch and was going to mow the lawn but sat down for a minute to read the paper and fell asleep. Cliff reminded me that just because I just had my last treatment on Wed I still have the meds in my system so I am not really done. You know me always trying to jump ahead. Anyway maybe I will get it done in the morning. I made dinner and was able to eat a little potato and corn and a couple bites of meat. It didn't taste good but it didn't taste like poison so I felt lucky. At least I am not hungry.

We haven't had our little Gordy for a few days and we both miss her sweet face. I was at my energy end in caring for her but I sure miss her sweetness. Teddi has been sick for the last few days with an ear infection. Hopefully she is better soon. She went to work tonight which I hated cause she is still sick and dizzy. Hope nothing happens she has to respond to quick. Anyway, the NASCAR race in Phoenix is getting ready to start to so I am going to watch it. Happy Trails
