MRI Experience

I had an MRI of the brain with contrast on Monday 8/13/18.  First timer.  Checked in, waiting just a  couple of minutes, then was escorted to the dressing room to change into paper tops and bottoms.

The tube feels like sitting in the middle seat on a full economy flight overseas.

The noise at first sounded like the test of the emergency broadcasting system.  Following staccato sounding beeps resonating a pulsing shiatsu massage.  After more words of encouragement from the tech, she injected contrast dye to my right upper arm then back in the tube for a few more minutes.

The End. It was faster than I thought.

The Greatest Showman

Snuck away yesterday morning to join some of my framily to watch a movie downtown. Some of them have watched this movie multiple times... so I decided to check it out as my "self-care" moment aka me, myself, and I time

-the GREATEST show is happening right in front of your eyes

I watched my kid this morning.

When my eyes opened this morning, seeing you facing me
one hand hugging me, moved an inch closer to snuggle me
My everything
Blessed to be alive

Living the Dream
I hope to remember this forever
