DAY 90

WOW!
We started the day with a quick trip to the bank and post office, then we walked to SCCA, got our revised schedule and took the shuttle to U of Wa Medical Center for Terry's CT guided biopsy. They are checking to see what the mass on his adrenal gland is. It wasn't there a month ago and, of course, they are very interested in it.
The procedure took about 2 1/4 hours. I heard reports that it was a bit difficult, but they did get what they needed. Terry remained for observation until maybe a quarter to 7:00, with a couple lung x-rays in between that time. It's such a tricky place that they need to make sure that they don't send him home with any other problems.
We took the 7:25 shuttle back to SCCA and the driver told us he would take us on to the Pete Gross house after he checked to see if there were any others in need of a ride. The regular shuttles that go to the Pete Gross House takes the last run at 4:50, so we were going to have to walk. This driver just does this out of the goodness of his heart and we appreciate it, as did another fellow that needed a ride. We have run across many good people in our lives and hope to follow their lead.
We were back to the apartment a few minutes before 8:00 and felt the need to rest. It's already been a long week and it's only just begun. Another full day ahead!

FYI - This driver was born and raised in Wenatchee. :)

So thankful the driver was there when you needed him. We are leaving to head for New Mexico in about two hours. We are waiting for Tyler to get off work. We will stay in Provo tonight and finish the trip tomorrow. If I already told you this I am sorry. I getter finish packing and give Dallin some directions since he will be staying home. Loves to you, Sherri and Family
