(For the record, I was NOT a great student there, but I earned every single C and C+ my tiny little brain was able to accomplish. College was a complete disaster for Yours Truly, but I tried really really hard and despite being entirely too stupid and socially inept to be there...I'm glad I gritted it out and got that diploma that looks almost like my dad's.)
(Except his was signed by Fr Hesburgh, was for Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, and had all kinds of fantastic grades and wonderful collegial memories built into it.)
(Sigh.)
And because I wasn't completely done with traumatizing myself, there was the LSAT testing that I was certain would kill me.
(Again...disaster.)
But I digress.
Next week will be an adventure through my torso parts...liver, spleen, pancreas, and gall bladder. And just to make sure not one single square inch of me is not inspected thoroughly, there will also be 'oscopies all over the damn place.
We're narrowing in, Dearies. By the time this is all over, I will have an EOB (explanation of benefits) as thick as a phone book and a small army of satisfied specialists standing in the photo booth with a little sign that reads "I cured the Spinster Stitcher of all that ailed her".
Back to stitching and diamond painting. What's new with you?
God bless you, Coni. Keep your sense of humor, it'll help carry you through the week ahead. That and prayer, lots and lots of prayer. I'm joining mine to yours- hope all goes well. -psv

ReplyDeleteMy dear, you graduated Notre Dame....rejoice ! Not enough get that opportunity. Praying you through the coming week that all goes smoothly, solutions found and patient and physicians proud of the of their efforts in accomplishing positive results.
ReplyDeleteWowee! Not contented with graduating from one of the USA's greatest universities, you are now proceeding to rewrite numerous medical textbooks - by proxy, granted, but it's all your own work. All round the world, people are holding thumbs for as many successful outcomes as possible, and none at all of the other sort. Plus, all those medical specialists will be brightened and cheered by your delightful presence. Think positive: we're all thinking positive with you.
ReplyDeleteOh Coni, thank you for the chuckle this AM! I hope all your tests go smoothly for you next week. Thinking of you and continued prayers heading your way.
ReplyDeleteThe waiting is hard ((( hugs ))). At least you don’t have to study for these tests!
ReplyDeleteOne Bible verse that my dad and I referenced often is Psalm 139: 14 - "I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made..."
ReplyDeleteI would remind him that some days were fearful, but others were wonderful. It always made him chuckle... ;- )
Great work.
