Date for Surgery

I finally have a date for surgery: March 9th.

It's the day before Ruth's birthday, but neither of us feels like celebrating, early or otherwise. Funny how that works. But it's a good day as far as her schedule goes, and it's good to finally have it on the calendar.

In the meantime, my GP, Dr. Laura Miller wants to me to come in to discuss things. I'm not sure why. In fact, I will have 3 medical appointments before the surgery: my PET CT scan, which is still going on as planned on Tuesday, the meeting with Dr. Miller, and my pre-op appointment with Alta Bates.

I have to go now. We're having dinner at an ice cream parlor. Because, I guess, life is too precious to waste on real food.
