Keith’s mother is home from her visit with the ENT specialist & the results of the biopsy.  The results are inconclusive as the surgeon couldn’t get enough tissue. The surgeon & ENT doctor suspect it could be thyroid or nodules (duh!).   Both doctors recommend surgery.

Not only did the ENT doctor make my DR MIL wait 8 days to hear he knows nothing, he is having her wait longer now while he gets in touch with her primary physician.  He wants to know if it is safe for her to have surgery due to her pulmonary problems.  Heaven forbid he made the call before he saw her.  Keith and I are exceptionally annoyed at the moment.

There was no mention of leaving the growth alone, nor of the consequences of doing so on an 86 year old.  Is it necessary to remove a nodule, if so then why do the biopsy instead of removing it to begin with?  My understanding is that thyroid cancer is slow growing-how slow I don’t know.  

Sorry, end of rant regarding the doctor, who deserves stronger words than mine to describe his bedside manner.

We live in a college town & I have heard that is a problem. >:(

It's also a problem in resort areas. My brother lives in a mountain community in NC and most of his dogs are ones that were abandoned by their scumbag owners.

So sorry to hear that, DR Jane...

One does wonder at times what these doctors are thinking; that is a terrible way to treat someone.

United Airlines checked baggage allowance will be reduced to ONE

That is going to make it very hard on documentary crews, whose checked baggage is usually light kits, tripods, etc.

Thank you DR Laura.  I must admit she is not nearly as annoyed as we are.  Keith's brother isn't happy either since he takes her to all of her doctor appointments & this one was a total waste of time & energy.  He wisely sits in the waiting room.  

I wish I could go with her.  I think she is glad I can't go and yell at these people. ;D

I wonder if the one bag check will hold.  It will only increase the number of carry-on bags.

Edi, your cats should love a Cat Dancer.

Oh, they've had them, but they don't last very long before they"re "down to the wire". And Greg always worries that they'll put their eye out, so we haven't had one in a while.

Their new favorite toy, which is a variation on the cat dancer, is a handle with a wire coming out of it and a dragonfly on the end. You can bounce it around and it looks life a real dragonfly, flying around. They are mesmerized by it!

Freddy the cat loves to play fetch. He will chase the foam ball around and swat at it and finally pick it up in his mouth and meow loudly has he is brining it to me. He sets it down and I throw it. Then we start all over again.

The love cat does this, too, with his toy mice. Two of the cats make that hunting sond when they're carrying around a toy mouse.

They also love to fetch little balls of paper, and bring them back and drop them in my shoes.

In teh morning, when I'm getting ready for work, the big love cat lies on top of my shoes with his feet inside of them. He looks like he's trying to hide them so I can't leave!

We have a shoelace tied to the dining room chair so that the end almost touches the floor. Joshie and Sassy love it. Sasha just chases her tail when she thinks no one is looking.

My cats are easy and cheap.

Since the Simpsons were among today's topics, I took out the season 1 box set and watched the last episode of the first season while I cooked and ate lunch. Only average funny as Marg thinks she's being taken for granted and Homer has to go out of his way to be sweet. Meanwhile, a baby sitter they've hired is actually a famous thief.

Among the several phone calls this afternoon, I managed to watch three more THE LAST EMPEROR documentaries. One of them was THE SOUTH BANK SHOW made during the filming of the movie in Peking.

One of the things that has become monotonous about these documentaries is that they all use the same footage from the film to illustrate their stories. After watching the same clips for four or five times, it does get very dull indeed.

Thoughts for DRJANE's M I L....whew....more questions than answers....

I am remiss in not congratulating DR PENNYO on her journalistic opportunity.  I can hear the IQ's of her readers rising as she types.
