Cassi Creek: Up at
0500 this morning for another drive into Mountain Home. At that time, there were snow flurries and no
accumulation. By 0600, the decks and
cars were covered with snowflakes and pellet snow. The wind was blowing at about 20 MPH, whining
in the utility lines and trees.
Left home at
0711 after the usual morning ritual.
Presented my body for another blood collection that turned out to be a
duplication and unnecessary. I could
have slept another half hour. Saw my
primary care physician 30 minutes after the scheduled appointment time. There were no abnormal labs, nothing abnormal
on physical exam.
She feels
that there will be no action on my Agent Orange/Parkinson’s claim until after
my May neuro appointment. The
neurologist left the DX unresolved. Since
there is no indication of abnormality on MRI, and since both Gloria and I
believe that the prescribed anti-Parkinson’s medication is having a positive
effect, I think the DX is essentially complete.
A brief trip
to Fresh Market followed; where I found lamb shanks to fix tomorrow. We haven’t had lamb shanks for quite a long
time. I’ll braise them tomorrow.
It is cold,
damp, and windy. The higher ridges and
peaks are snowy again. Once in a while,
the sun breaks through. Today’s high, at 0001, was 42 °F. Currently, 34 °F at 1320.
Chag Sameach!
"Doctor, is there something I can take?"
