My Biopsy Fiasco

 

This morning, Mark and I headed into the hospital

for another biopsy of my Lumbar 4 tumor.

Here we go...

 

 

Instructions for putting on the gown,

so nothing improper sticks out.

 

Waiting to get this show on the road.

 



The consent said L3, not L4,

so I refused to sign it.

 



  







Trying to straighten things out

with Dr. Laudi, the clinic

and the hospital staff.

Seriously thinking about going AWOL.

 



 







 

Big Brother is watching.

My mom told me to moon him!

 

This is reassuring,

but only in a PR sort of way.

 

 

The consent was changed to L4, so I signed it.

I am not sure what happened. 

I got a lot of Versed and I fell asleep.

 I was done and heading back home at 1:00pm.

At 4:00pm, I was notified that everything went well,

so now we just wait some more.

 

 

Thank you

for all your thoughts and prayers

for me,

for my family,

and for all of my caregivers.

I am grateful.
