Up at 5:00. Showers completed and out the door by 6:00 (in the morning, that is!). Hop in the car and point towards Saskatoon.
Reason? Not many would have me up at this time!
My wife has an appointment for three tests. The tests are taken at Royal University hospital in Saskatoon — a 2 1/4 hour drive away. We plunge down the highway, the sun rising quickly on the horizon. The one hour marker – Rosetown – arrives sooner than I had figured. We regain speed outside town and soon the outskirts of Saskatoon beckon.
In the hospital we register and hurry to the waiting area of cardiac testing. There Jill is led away for her first test. I head out for an errand. When I return a 1/2 hour later she is sitting in the waiting area. The stress test is a "no go". Doesn’t work with a constanty running heart pacemaker!
The other two tests follow shortly. The results will be examined and hopefully we will hear word of the results in the next short while.
We are home now (did some shopping!), and the bed looks inviting. No late night for us tonight!!
