After the fact I'm not remembering much that happened this day. (As I write this it's now Monday.)
Joe went out to the ranch to feed the cats, and said our lane was tough from the tree in to the house. But he didn't need to put on the chains. He supposes that next week he will need to go in on the snowmachine. Everything there was fine.
Joe brought the mail and there was a set of new credit cards. I also got a letter that said some of the credit card information for my account may have been compromised at a third party location and my card number may have been part of this occurrence. That is what was wrong with the card in Las Vegas. So they gave me a new card and number. It was just a coincidence that it happened when I was in Vegas. It was time to issue new ones anyway. So hopefully all is well. I still need to call them to activate the new one. I'm just glad someone is watching.
Also in the mail was a copy of the report on last CT scan from St. John's oncology which I asked them to mail to me. The gist of it is that the pancreatic tumor is about 1 - 1/8" in size. The liver lesions are somewhat better/smaller. There are some very small incidental renal cysts (on the kidneys.) Since they see more than just the tumors or organs where trouble is, they comment on the report what else they have found. I've been aware all along that I was having deterioration of the spine assume this is causing some of my pain and trouble getting in and out of cars or chairs, etc. That pain has gotten worse and this scan probably answers why by saying there is "Very severe degenerative change (since the last scan about 3 mo. ago) of the visualized thoracolumbar spine". Will be sure to bring this up at my next doctor visit to see just what this change means.
This afternoon we got the whole house cleaned and that feels good. After dinner I went to the store and got groceries we needed. It's a good time to shop because it's way less crowded and more parking spaces.
