“Back to Texas” day again. Chris had a follow up appointment with the cancer surgeon. This is the one that last week the office called and tried to cancel, insisting that the doc only sees patients 6 months after surgery. Chris challenged them. We have an audio recording of the doc specifically saying six weeks, not months. And they made the appointment that day in the clinic. I was interested to see what happened with this one.
As it turned out, everyone acted like we were supposed to be there. Except maybe the front desk. They didn’t ask for any money. Always an odd welcome. The doc did her exam and declared that all was well at this point and ready for radiation. She emphasized some of the stretching exercises Chris has been doing. They will prepare her for the inevitable further tightening of the skin during radiation. She made us an appointment for six months down the road, at which point they begin the regular mammograms again.
After the appointment, we went over to Luby’s for lunch. It has been a while. No liver and onions in sight, so I went for the chicken fried steak. Chris had boring baked chicken. The food certainly did not stand out (except for the chocolate ice box pie. My favorite). But the service was the best we have had since we have been going to Luby’s. She even called some of her customers by name when they walked in. Impressive.
As we were finishing up, we got a text from Christina. Seems Micah took his driving test and scored I try 100% on his driving test. He is officially all licensed up. Congrats, Micah. I’m proud of you.
Psalms 27:14 says, Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.
Father, thank you for Micah. Protect him in his new endeavors behind the wheel. Amen.
