CT Scan

Monday was the long awaited CT scan. Hopefully, for the next two years, this will be an every four months experience. Faina pretty much puts all planning on hold in the weeks leading up to the scan and then is a little more open to contemplating trips, concerts, and medium term planning after seeing the report. Monday's scan was clean, other than some thickening of the intestinal walls, an indication of anything from irritation to a recurrence of the disease. A colonoscopy is on the Friday calendar. Thank you Dr. Silverman for finding time on your schedule for a pre-op check-up ("How soon can you get over here?") and Dr. Gertner for the discovery of a warp in the time-space continuum. And so we ride the waves, from crest to trough, up and down.

Faina has been working, three days a week since the beginning of the month. Her energy level is good. She rarely makes it through the first segment of the Daily Show.

  1. Faina & Louis, we just rediscovered your blog. While we are on the computer all the time, we rarely enter the "blog" world. At least from the April report it sounds like you are doing extremely well (I realize that is a relative statement). Even though we haven't communicated for a long time you tip-toe through our minds fairly frequently. We would very much like to meet you for dinner - Louis has not responded to past requests.
