CAT Scan...four days 'til chemo

Early this morning we rushed over to Georgetown again, after depositing the kids into two separate neighborhood bank accounts. The appointment this time was for a CAT Scan (also known as a CT Scan). This scan will serve as a necessary baseline for future monitoring. Here is a sequence of images from our trip.

(I did edit out a few images from this morning's sequence. Here they are after placing them in their proper context.) After the scanning was done, Daniela and I wanted to glance ahead in time by surveying the shores of the infusion archipelago. We were impressed. The first nurse we encountered offered to give us a brief tour. The atmosphere was serene, only a few patients. There were rooms with beds. There were many windows successfully seducing the sunlight. The walls were painted a hue of sea blue. In a few days, Daniela will return...marooned...in her chemo chaise...to watch the giant jellyfish float towards her and deliver their mild sting.
