Great news again

Craig's 3 month check-up this week shows he is still in remission! Technology plays a new role in medicine. Craig's lab work of blood and urine was done a week early. He went down to St. Mary's ambulatory care and nurses checked his vitals. Our appointment with Dr. Venod in Sioux Falls was a video conference. We'll repeat in 3 months and then go to Mayo Clinc in April.

Three month checks are not without frustrations and humor. Blood draws are easy. Craig collects 24 hours of urine to the minute and keeps it cold. Someone cleaned the bathroom and dumped 12 hours of work. At least it's a renewable resource and there was plenty of time to get it in before the appointment. Gail
