I am waiting for the PET scan to be scheduled. I think Christine lives
within 2 hours of where the test will be. HOWEVER, I would have to fly into
Toronto first. Over 2 million people and they are being buried under snow
and can't cope. The mayor is calling in the Military. Makes me hide my
Canadian head in shame. (I'm joking) They are not used to this volume and
since the city was amalgamated, the snow removal bugs are not worked out.
