Missed Their Call

Though it is hard to admit, yes, I missed the call from the Doctor. Twice.

I called the office about 2, and the nurse informed me that the Doctor, herself, would have to talk to me about the pathology report. Plus, she had not seen the pathology come across any desks yet. She looked for my chart on the Doctor's desk, but did not find it. And, she stated that the doctor makes her calls in her free moments, sometimes as late as 6 p.m., rather than a designated time.

So... I had told Annaleigh that we could go buy flowers for our wooden barrels this afternoon. I took our time leaving, so as to be available as long as possible, then gathered my cell phone and we took off.

While the Doctor did not call my cell, nor did she call Mark at work, she did call the house twice. (No message...I am basing that on the caller ID.)

The "up" side is that we will be enjoying the weekend "information free." If the nodes are clear, that is a moot point; if they are not, then we won't be thinking about the implications of that this weekend, anyway. Not having the information changes nothing about my health status...but having flowers for our barrels adds some much needed summer color. :-)

And, we did accomplish setting my post-surgical appointment. It will be Tuesday afternoon, so that is the very latest we will find out what the pathology report says. Thanks for checking in!
