So, my retired teacher friend had her follow-up appointment. As she said, they squished and squeezed it every which way they could think of. Sore of course at the end but with the new pictures compared with base-line pictures of years past, just fibrous elements or some such thing so all is okay. All is okay. Breathing a sigh of relief. I'm so relieved as I surely know she is.
Thanks for the good thoughts.
Drove to work in blinding windy slushy snow/rain today. Not fun. Snow on the ground now at home. Only about an inch.
