Today was an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) for my favorite ole cowboy. This was the second of tests, the first having been the EEG (brain wave test) last week. I have had several prior to having my knees and shoulders replaced. I sent him off with no metal in his clothing. I didn’t really go into the sounds and close quarters that he would experience . . . no preconceived expectations. I was the one surprised when Dennis returned home several hours later and I saw a gauze bandage on his arm and one on one of his fingers. This particular MRI included drawing blood from him first and then injecting a contrast via an IV. Hmm. He went on to tell me his head was placed in a very specific form and then a face mask was placed onto him. When we meet with the doctor this Thursday, it will be a good thing to see what the two tests have indicated. For Dennis’s sake, there will be no more tests. Most important will be finding answers for his wellbeing. Being 80 years young brings many days, months and years that are yet to be enjoyed.
