X Ray

We had to go to the bank this morning to put our cheques into the account. It is always nice to have your bank account grow a bit. Outside were two lovely plants, a pink dogwood tree and a gorgeous azalea.

These are the petals of the dogwood tree. It is a beautiful tree with which to decorate the town.

Ray had to go to the hospital today for X Rays on his shoulder. The doctor found he had some calcium in his shoulder that has been causing him pain. He has to wait now until he can get in to have it removed. It will hurt but then there will be no more pain. Remember if you can that he had the same needle insertion on his back and there has been no pain since. Not a very nice procedure to have but the results are good.

After the hospital I said to Ray , "Let's go to White Spot for strawberry shortcake". So we did go but when we got there the waitress said we have not served that for 1 years LOL. I had to give my head a shake. But they did have a Strawberry Tart with whipped cream, so we had that. It was good.

We just came home after that. It seems as if the day was very short but you know how much time is spent waiting for the doctor and then for the blood tests and later for the X Ray. That took up a good part of the day.

The doctor is a very nice man who was not as serious as many doctors. He joked and laughed and made is very relaxing.

I called Richard when I got home. He is expecting his third daughter Kate tomorrow. She will be a blessing to him I am sure. He is feeling the horror of this disease today and I pray that tomorrow will bring him more ease.
