More Blood Work - January 26, 2011

Another winter storm was predicted for today, but how it began was unexpected. The weather reports were for rain changing to snow but instead the temps were a bit lower than anticipated and we got about 2 inches of the white stuff between 6 AM and 9 when we left for Little Silver. Roads were pretty slick and traffic was moving slowly, very slowly in some spots, but that was really a good thing. On the radio we heard reports of accidents all around us but we didn't encounter any, thank goodness.

Pete went in the back to have his blood drawn almost as soon as we arrived. We were waiting for the results when his local oncologist, Dr W, came out with them and sat down to chat. Usually there are a number of people there but today the office was really quite empty. He told us that just about all of his patients had called and cancelled because of the weather.

Pete's blood work results were as expected. Numbers are still not normal, but they're good considering the short time removed from radiation and chemo treatments. We'll return on Friday, when they're predicting another snow event. At least we're not driving into the city.
