Injection One That Was Really Two

I arrived at LDS Hospital this morning, a little after 8, and headed to the eighth floor. A nurse was expecting me and ushered me into a room with three recliners, blood pressure machines, and other sundry equipment. I sat in one of the recliners, the nurse took some vitals, then she uncorked two ten-inch needles and stuck them into me.  Just kidding. :) There were two injections, but they were well administered, into the back of my right upper arm, and I hardly felt anything. Even as I make this entry, my arm is not sore, and I am in no discomfort.

After the injections, I visited with Jim for a few minutes. He looked good and was in good spirits. Brendon was there when I arrived, and he and I left together. I didn't stay long because mom was in the car, parked on the street. She had a small cough and did not want to take the chance of carrying anything infectious into Jim's room.

After the hospital, mom and I attended today's performance and broadcast of Music and the Spoken Word. As many times as I have listened to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir via various media, nothing does justice to the live sound, especially in the tabernacle.

We were going to visit Rick, Amanda, and the boys today, but Rick, Braden, and Evan are sick with flu-like symptoms (major hurling), so we have decided to postpone the visit until everyone is well. I don't want to take the chance of picking up a germ.

We are currently at John's place where we had lunch, and John just invited us for dinner (whoohoo!).
