Dr. Torti's assistant just called me, and (HOORAY!) they will see him a week from tomorrow, Thursday, Sept. 22. He will get a 3 part CT scan (and MRI later if CT shows any questions)--upper, middle, and lower abdomen.
She said that his fevers and things could indicate an infection, and maybe he should go to the hospital at Boone and be checked, but I know he won't do that. I'll mention it.
She also said--this was a GULP moment: "He HAS been getting his 3-month scans all along, right?" I said, "No. He was due in July and no one told us anything."
She said, "Oh dear."
I still think it was the vague communication from the Boone people--since they contacted Torti in August, I'm sure Torti ASSUMED they hadn't FORGOTTEN to give him his July scan.
But seems that they DID. So he's almost two months late for a three-month scan!
Torti's assistant did NOT seem happy about that, but rather concerned.
Anyway, Thursday Sept. 22nd will be just a day trip, over and back in one day, so you can bet I'll post the dickens out of THAT event!
I hope they don't try to keep the Cowpoke in that hospital over there due to his fevers and stuff. It's awful sad being in this house when he's not here. He's my lil darlin, and I love to be near him. I'd probably stay overnight with him. They always let the spouses sleep in a chair beside the patient. (He's probably thinking, "Shoot, I could've watched a game on the hospital TV that night without her TALKING all the way through it.")
Beth...stop blabbering now! That's enough information for one post!
Ok.
Love to all!
