| A teeny tiny bit of catching up. Gordy left a perfect message, if a message like this is ever good. Thank you Gordy [he learned from the last trip to CPT when he didn't warn me, and I rec'd a call from WSH re: Mom]. They phoned, and there was a "substitute" MD who thought Mom was having a heart attack as she was pointing to her sternum /esophogus area saying "I hurt". The did the correct things by phoning Gordy and also giving Mom and EKG and took her blood. It showed that her heart was strong. Gordy was so very smart by wisely asking, "What did Gerry do to indicate she may be having a heart attack?". They replied about her words and gestures. It rang a bell in Gordy's head, as it did in mine when I rec'd Gordy's phone message, that as she was losing her ability to speak, she would point to the heart area, and move her hand up and down, saying that it hurt there -- and it was always depression, severe depression. Gordy left me the number on the message, so I phoned WSH and spoke to Trish who said the heart was strong, and she heard me when I mentioned what that series of words and motions meant. She will pass it on to Chuck Harris, her psychiatrist. Trish said they were all very worried about Mom, hey all love her and think she's great [even when she's bossy and ornery etc...her love of life and sense of humor come through -- my Mom is amazing!]. So after hanging up, and shedding a few tears of relief, I phoned Gordy to tell him what they said, and to thank him for the message he left, and how he left it. Whatta guy, eh? Anyhooo, today I took my therapist out to lunch; we had an adventure--sort of a food gift of the magi fiasco. She hunted down a veggie place, and I wanted to take her to a nice place and it was in that category. We went, we ate, we are not going again!!! I love Mary, she's an amazing woman, and an amazing healer. I hope we stay in touch beyond tomorrow's last day of treatment. One day left to perform a miracle. It could happen, right? I head home on Friday, I took that extra time to get my ducks in a row, like pack, drop off the car and get to the airport. 20/20 hindsight, I should have left Thursday eve to get home all the more quickly -- but then ferry catching would be dicey at best. So, here's a picture of Mary, my healer here in Irvine CA:
 If you can believe it, her inner self is even more beautiful than the outer manifestation...
