Today I had an appointment with the hematologist. The appointment was at 1.45PM and to kill the time we spend some time at a mall close by.
We had a cup of tea with my sister, through the internet of course but it felt good and not far at all. Both of us enjoying a cup of tea.
After that we did some walking around the stores. This is the Target symbol, this was a Super Target, so we wandered around for quite some time.
We bought almonds, mmmm to good to be true.
This made my sister think so she got up and got some herself.
I showed her the escalator for the shopping carts. We had seen this before but it always makes wonder what you will see next that makes life easy here. Do we know something like this in Holland, I have never seen it, have you?
The doctor brought me some good news, he told me I looked much better than before, that was a nice compliment to start with. We went through the test results taken 2 weeks ago while in the hospital.
All the results came back positive, so that was good. The only thing, and I already knew this, was my B12 level, that was way too low. He gave me a shot of this and I need to come two more times before heading home. He also took some blood to compare this with what they took from me before and they will inform us about the results next time we visit. I’m being looked after real good, which makes me feel good.
On the way back we happen to drive by the Goodwill store where it all started some 3 weeks ago. I felt good after what the doctor just told me so I decided to stop and visit the store. As you can imagine it was not something on my to do list at first, it just felt strange going inside. Just facing the site where it all happened and being afraid it might happen again, but hey what are the odds. And of course all went well, walked around and looked around, feeling good and just being able to finish it this way made me proud.
I, of course, had to buy something so I bought this basket for $2.00.
When we got home, we found this card from my colleagues. Thank you for thinking about me, it does me real good!
