Arrived on time at the Wound Clinic on West Jackson. We were warned that this would be a long visit and they did not disappoint. We started with Nurse A who did her assigned tasks and then passed us off to Nurse B who was followed by the Doctor and his personal nurse who yielded to Nurse D (Connie) who redressed the wound and sent us to the administrative personnel. This all took about 3 hours! Connie was very personable and revealed that she was working on a photo book surprise so she and I shared insights into that production piece and Dennis seems to enjoy the distraction of someone not pestering him for pain scale measurements or other medical questions.
We had a late lunch and were both exhausted with yet another sojourn into the medical galaxy. This should probably be a captain's log...star date whatever. Sometimes it really feels that we're in outer space.
Joe and Heidi were given frequent flyer miles from their friend Mike (who is on assignment in Abu Dabi) and they plan on a mutual birthday weekend in Chicago on Sept 17-19th. That will be strange to have them so close yet too far to visit on such a busy weekend. With the premier of "Pat's House" slated for that Saturday and the Living Lightly Fair, it's just going to be a crazy weekend. The Walker-Londt Reunion is on Sept 19th also. Can we possibly get anything else in one weekend?
