Hi,  I just spoke with the PCIP people.  I am 24 hours away from approval.  When I call and get approved, I should also get the name and address of the Insurance company where I will send my down payment.  Then I should watch the bank and when the check clears then call PCIP again to get them to find my ID# for insurance claims.  All of that since it takes about 4 weeks to get an insurance card and I might need it before that.  I said yes, I will....So I will have to stay on top of this, I will probably call back tomorrow too.  Just cant wait to get covered! Going to see Dr. Patterson today, I will need to know where to get the cat scan and when and what the blood work is needed for.  Dr. Onstad will probably be involved getting the work done here before I go 10/9. Btw, Sue the nurse who draws my blood every Monday at Dr. Onstad's office is a buckeye, and brilliant at finding my vein.  One little jab, no marks afterward, brilliant.  I hope the doctors are impressed with the chemotherapy and get this done asap. 
To the club today and Wednesday.  Just love to play this game!  Thursday chemo.  Mom is coming to town next Thursday.  I plan on playing with her everyday.  Cant wait.  She will stay with me.  It's like bridge camp when you live my life with me.  I assume we will exercise in the morning.  I am totally out of shape.  Been busy, been tired, been eating salty stuff,   We will probably walk at the beach since our street is dug up so bad there is no way to walk around the park! 
God Bless and Happy New Year!!
