You would think that after so many MRIs I would be an expert; however, I guess I'm not medical enough, because this is about the extent of my knowledge. Some people are freaked out by MRIs because they're claustrophobic and have to be given sedatives. This is not my case and I see them as an opportunity to relax and even sleep. The high point of getting an MRI has to be when, just before you are pushed unto the tube, you are offered a warm blanket by the friendly technician. Boy, does that feel good!
The MRI wan't bad (see above) but the cognitive testing sucked. Somehow I have managed to escape this very annoying procedure thus far, but yesterday I was subjected to the tests, the worst of which involved remembering and adding numbers that a recorded male voice rattled off at an alarming speed (doubtless HE was reading a script).
After that ordeal we treated ourselves to lunch and shopping at that mecca called the Galleria. A decadent chocolate and banana drink from Godiva topped off a long day.

Hey, Melinda! I love your blog!
We all have adversity... all different types. But I love hearing how people handle it. Many people don't talk about it, others focus so much on it that it changes who they are/were and not in a positive way. I think God is using you to show that your adversity is only a part of your life... not your whole life, but just a part of it. I like that you still are focused on what's important in life and you have so many interests! I admire you, Melinda!
Susan, You're pretty amazing too! I love how you handle adversity with a smile :). Melinda
