Out and about again - Day 3 of lockdown
My third consecutive day with a hospital appointment, and on each day I have been transported in a different car. Today I finally got a ride in my son's new Ford Ranger.
The appointment today was for an ultrasound scan of the urinary tract, and was scheduled for 19:30. At 16:15 I had a call from the hospital asking if I could make it for 17:30, I was happy to do that as it meant I would get my dinner 2 hours earlier. It also just gave me enough time to fulfill their requirement of drinking 1 1/2 pints of water 1 hour before the scan (and no visits to the loo until after the scan).
The trip and scan were pretty uneventful, and I was back home in time to cook dinner (a stir fry using some leftover chicken from yesterday's roast) and clap the NHS.
Not being an ante natal scan I didn't get to see the images, take away the photo, and they didn't tell me if it was going to be a boy or a girl. I will get the results along with those from Tuesday's biopsy sometime from the end of next week.
I don't have a legitimate excuse to go out tomorrow, and anyway I have a delivery to wait in for, the courier company have told me it will be between 08:00 & 19:00. My prediction is between 11:30 & 12:00 as I will be on a conference call then.
So a day at home, working from home.
