CT Update
Just a quick update today. I would have posted this yesterday, but didn’t want to take away from the memory of Dr. Pausch. My CT scan went well, I guess (I won’t know anything until Monday morning). I conveniently forgot, however, what a joy it was to drink 40oz of barium. I’m not sure which is worse, the banana flavored barium or the lemon-lime flavored stuff they made me drink last time. Either way, I don’t think I’ll be having any banana smoothies in the near future. Bleah!
Dr. Pausch’s death has once again brought me face to face with my mortality. While I know that I am different from Dr. Pausch, the reality is that his situation is very similar to mine. His death is simply a reminder that if I become a candidate for surgery, the procedure itself is NOT the end point of this journey. Instead, it becomes merely another (albeit significant) stop along the way.
Hope you are having a great weekend.
