Tuesday but really Wednesday morning

Well it is really early Wednesday morning which means 9:00 am life is tough when you are almost retired I continue to feel well and seem to be getting more strength as time goes by.  Well one of the tests that had to be done at Ann Arbor was a bone morrow tap where they go into your hip bone and draw off stuff in your bone then take a small core sample.  I have had this test done at Dr. Bailey's 4 times before and it takes about 4 or 5 minutes and hurts a lot but for just for a few minutes.  Well Ann Arbor had scheduled this test to be done there and I was not to concerned since I was familiar with the test.  Well we started the test and they got the fluid without to much effort but when they tried to get the core they had to change tools many times and each time you touch the connective tissue around the bone it is unbelievable pain.  Finely she called in an expert who had stronger hands not sure what that meant but he tryed a few times and I heard that it kept slipping off the edge of the bone also felt the effects.  So he proposed that he go to the other hip that would be my left hip which worked and seemed similar to Dr. Bailey's technique.  We had went into the procedure at 2:00 PM and out at 3:30 PM they must work by the hour.  Sorry for the blow by blow account but I wanted to document it for Dr. Bailey as it looks like he is missing out on a lot of money. 
 
I just completed a very good book by Harlan Coben the title is The Innocent took a bit to get into but when you are there it won't let go so a high recommendation.
 
Thank you for all your prayers they have made a big difference God continues to meet our needs almost before we know its a need.  Please continue to keep us in prayers and may God continue to bless us all.
