Cramming to pass a test on Monday

Despite the fact that it has been a week without treatment, things have been busy.

After meeting with the surgeon early this week, Carol is scheduled to have a hysterectomy the middle of next week.  That is, if she passes the succession of tests that lead up to the surgery.  She has already aced the EKG.  Next up is the dreaded phone interview, but this one should be no problem.  Then, on Monday, the blood test that makes sure her red and white blood counts have rebounded enough from treatment to give her the ok for surgery.  She's studying hard for this one, downing buckets of good foods, staying hydrated, and trying to get lots of rest.

As ever, thank you to everyone who reads this, everyone who cares, everyone who wants to help but doesn't feel that they know how.  Believe me, you do.
