[Magdalen] PET scan.

[Scott Knitter]

Prayers continue, friend. I'd worry as well, but what would help me is
to remind myself the results are data and will be what they need to
be. And that the results lead (finally) to an appropriate treatment
course. But whatever the data turn out to be, it's a big moment in
this process. I'm praying for your peace of mind and for the results
to be the opening of a door to progress toward healing. You've had
more than your share of waiting!

But at least the radioactive dye went in quickly (if painfully), and my hour of waiting was pleasantly me with my own thoughts.  The scan, 35 minutes in length, was at first claustrophobic, but quickly merely interesting:  staying perfectly still, and realising the tube was actually rather short in length, making it so I could see light at the end of the proverbial tunnel at both ends during the whole thing.  My feet were bound in a way that made my wounds hurt, but hey, I could have been at my desk at work, where they would have hurt worse.
