A long day at the clinic!!!!!

Well yesterday we spent almost the whole day at the Gonda section at Mayo. I was on the 2 nd floor getting a resqueeze on my milk jugs. Gramps was up on 9 th floor getting reamed from both ends. Don't have his results yet . Go back today at 4:00 for them. Me it's different. I get to go in on Friday and have a stereotaxic breast biopsy. I get to lay on a table on my stomach and drop my jug through a hole , then they clamp a paddle on each side to hold it in place and stick a needle in to get samples. Fun FUn FUn.
Both of our appointments were at 1:15. Mine took about an hour. Then I go up to 9 th floor to get Gramps. Well thye just started him at 2:20. You will never guess what time we got out of there. It was 6:30 p.m. WHAT A DAY. We were the last ones out of the place. Us and three nurses were there. They had to clean all the beds and shut down the computers.
I would very much like it if no one would laugh at our trip to Gonda. Thank you.

Later Gator

Why the biopsy Mary? Did they find a mass or lump? If you need someone to hold your hand (yes-just your hand) I can do that for you. Let me know. I can be there! Good luck!
