Labs are back – can now spell amyloid…
Got the call around 8am at work – arrange for George to be seen at Boston Medical Amyloid Clinic as soon as possible. After a painful and quick sob, my wonderful co-workers whisked me away to my sister’s home.
The marvelous Peg, when I called to say I was coming over instead of being at work, calmly asked if I would like a cup of tea or a glass of wine when I arrived. Love her!
Multiple phone calls later – some in a high pitched panic voice – George’s appointment is set. We will be at the Amyloid Clinic in time for Halloween. An appropriate time for blood draws, don’t you think?
George was at work the entire day – had no idea this was going on. Well, not until he arrived home around 3pm and found me in the kitchen. By then I was cried out (or so I thought) and could talk to George in a “here’s the plan” voice. George is very positive and firmly believes that we will be fine.
I am very positive too but am not so sure – but we have a plan! And that’s to get to BMC next week. So lucky to live so close to Boston!
