OOhkay, less than 10 days before the trip, dad is diag with shallow vein thrombosis or somesuch. 2 clots detected and he's to go on bloodthinners. Still has the ok to travel. His bp is up which is freaky because usually the alarming thing at his physicals is they can't get a pulse b/c his bp and pulse are so low. And he had one not long ago. WTF.
Just call me the computer whisperer.

okey dokey.
What's frustrating is that I do this every year for Grace and I can't remember if I'm supposed to answer about Grace's assets or mine? So frustrating.

Whyfor the passports, Kat?
My day was spent mostly seeing the doctor. She was nice, nothing is wrong, but she decided to just go ahead and take care of every test that had come due, which meant, among other things, an unplanned mammogram. A bit time consuming.
Tell me I shouldn't be overly concerned that the technician felt the need to redo all the images on the left side. Right? Because it weirded me out and has left me wondering what she saw.

Possibly Canada, Burrell. Plus options and the ability to prove citizenship and ID for someone who otherwise doesn't have any. If I could get Grace to the post office I'd get her one too. More pressing, in fact, to get her one.

Burrell, I'd think more technical error than something scary.

I expect that's the reason sarameg, but when she opted to take another scan of the breast without even examining the previous image, I got suspicious.

That sounds like "oh shit, I fucked up procedure" even more if she hadn't seen the first.

My passport expired a few months ago and I haven't gotten a new one yet. I should do that soon.

Okay. That's good to hear.

Why else would she redo without looking? Looking=gathering data. Not looking and redoing sounds like something didn't get taken right, no data to gather.
So breathe, hon.
