Tuesday, 1 March 2016

I got up quite early this morning but didn't go out for a walk since I knew I'd be walking later.

At this week's WIZO meeting we continued sharing stories about our families. I told about my Mom going back to grad school when I was a kid and showed her thesis, which I still have. Then I showed them a beautiful afghan that my Dad knitted when I was a baby (or maybe even before I was born) while he was working as a special duty nurse.

After WIZO I walked down to Maccabi for an appointment with my urologist to receive the results from my prostate ultrasound and biopsy that was done about 3 weeks ago. I asked him if it was cancer, and he answered that he thought so, and he ordered some additional tests for more information. So, tomorrow I go in for a blood test, next Tuesday I go to the local hospital for a CT scan, and at some time as yet unscheduled I go back to Tel Aviv for some kind of a radioisotope exam. Then, the urologist will decided what the next steps should be.

Then I walked back home and had cheese and tomato sandwiches and a large salad.

In the early evening I took a short walk and enjoyed the coolness of the evening after a rather warm day. Later on, I listened to a program on the internet radio station Radio Hof Eilat featuring my friends David and Bassia Bar-Chai.
