A most interesting, long day at my primary physician's. First, he says, "You are taking this cancer diagnosis so well". I told him, "Well, you can't cry over spilled milk!" He then asked me, how did I get the referral to Keck? I told him, that one of his patients, my attorney friend, was pushing for it. He says, "Don't tell your Oncologist this, but you are going to the best cancer hospital, and doctor in Los Angeles!". He asked me how old is he, and I told him possibly 40. He says, "He is their star doctor." I said, "He told me, he was the best there is at this procedure." He laughed, and said, "The biggest ego, too!". He said, "Well,I hope you can get erect again?" Then I said, "I will get a popsicle stick, if I have to!". I spent the whole day getting a chest x-ray and blood work. I then went to eat a huge meal of Shabu Shabu. Have a great day, everyone.
