Back to work

Today I did my morning routine, albeit with a half-hour delay. I got up at 6:30 (instead of 6), but then I did my good routine of meditation, exercise, running, etc. I hope to do that every day. I did a short run, of about one and a quarter miles and had no problems at all. That was very reassuring.
I went into the office and accomplished quite a lot in the morning.
In the afternoon, my physician, Dr. Topolewski, called to report that yesterday's CAT scan did show a a small nodule (1.2 centimeters by 1.5 centimeters), which she want to examine more. One option is to do another CAT scan in six months, but she would prefer to do a PET scan as soon as possible. We arranged for the PET scan next Tuesday. All I have to do is not worry between now and then.
We enjoyed a lovely dinner of grilled salmon at the home of some good friends tonight.
