We went to the cancer center this morning and the Doctor felt it would be best if my husband had a bone scan. This would rule out cancer in the bones. It would also tell where he had arthritis in his body. He didn't want to at first but the longer they talked, the more he felt it would be a good idea. He was given dye in the arm and then we had 2 hours to kill.
So we went to our favorite Taco Tico for lunch and then to Fleet Farm looking for new folding chairs for outdoors. They didn't have what we were looking for so we went to Wal-Mart. They had about every kind there is. We got two nice ones that are fairly light weight and both the back and seat are padded. That is really nice. We will take them to the Fireworks on Friday and to a family picnic on Saturday. Our old ones are plastic and some of the woven pieces are kind of shredded and look like they could break at any time, plus there is a rod in the back that is uncomfortable when you sit for long. These will be much nicer.
The scan showed several bad arthritic places but no cancer in the bones. He will go to his urologist in October and will probably start on the hormone pellet then. It was a very happy outcome.
