Endoscopy

The doc found a 1 cm ulcer and an enlarged hiatal hernia. In other words, worse than my last endo 4 years ago.

Ron didn’t get ready in time to drive me to the hospital, then kept me waiting for two hours because he was too stubborn to take Route 7 – a straight shot from Williamstown.

The nurses were remarkable. Three of them were on the phone with Ron giving him directions. The nursing director got coffee and a lunch for me, courtesy of the hospital. The anesthesiologist tried to find a solution, but every alternative would have involved discharging me AMA.

My insurance company would have covered the claim even so. Fortunately, it’s no longer an issue since Ron finally showed up.

I plan to go back tomorrow to pick up the Corolla.
