I really don't love fighting traffic to get to downtown Dallas for appointments, but it's not to bad when the people are so kind. And, when I get a free gown and non-slip socks!
I was able to be worked in STAT-like. The problem was the availability left me with a 7:00am appointment!!!! That's not a good thing for me to think about having to wake up that early and trudge through morning traffic. Thankfully, my aunt came into tow, and we made an overnighter of it in a hotel next to the hospital. What a needed blessing!
We arrived on time, but CRNAs who access ports don't arrive until 7:30. I insisted, though. My veins have been wrecked over the years, and if there was one thing that could ruin a potentially easy day [other than nothing to eat until after both scans] it was a needle in the arm, trying to find a vein. Thankfully, a lovely port accessor arrived a little earlier than 7, and everyone working with me that day was a peach!
