New adventures haven't stopped since we stopped sailing.
Now my adventures are technological.

On it goes


Thursday morning and Dave is off playing Dracula, opps, I mean getting a blood transfusion.  All those years he donated are coming back.  It is much faster to be on the donation side rather than on the receiving end.  Each unit of blood takes about 2 hours, and he is getting two.  Would be much easier to get Dracula teeth and cut out the middle men. 

Our visit with the infectious disease doctor, Dr. Leggett, yesterday was very educational.  He would be a great teacher.  He had talked with the radiologist and showed us the MRI on the computer.  It was fascinating to see as he moved the image up and down showing us the areas of concern.  Looking at the size of the cysts in the liver, he felt Dave would have a much higher fevers if they were pockets of infection.  Unfortunately his feeling was that they were cancer.  Phooey, I had hoped it was something that could be fixed.  Dr. Leggett was planning on talking to Dr. Crocenzi, the oncologist, that day.  Now we regroup and talk with him on Tuesday.
