Cancer
In just four days I'll be going to Chicago (Northwestern Medical Center) to get my second opinion on the Kidney Cancer I've be diagnosed with. I don't really know what to expect, given that I've never been there before. I have made certain to get a copy of the hospital medical records, as well as a cdrom copy of the CT Scan that was used when the Cancer was discovered. I'll be leaving early (about 8am) to make sure I can not only find the place, but also fill out the stack of forms that will be waiting for me.
Tom will be coming along. It's really terrific having a friend like Tom to help me in these crises. I've already seen to it that he's listed in my auto insurance as an extra driver; he can take over if he needs to, just like he did when we were on vacation in New Hampshire.
I'll post again when I get back from the trip.
