Thoughts, Actions, Result

The week was long, but so productive! A true blessing from Above... My friend, fellow Diva LSJ, and I spent Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday in Charleston, SC at the Medical University of SC's teaching hospital having her hearing aid implant removed. An out-patient procedure (amazing what modern medicine is capable of doing), which was successful. A feeling of relief, yet sadness, too. Relief that the removal was relatively easy for the physician and a minimum of pain for my friend. Sadness over the device not producing the desired results. This is not a complaint or a commit to influence any one's decision to try the method to increase hearing ability. This column deals with opinions of the author and that alone. Understand? Normally our road trips are business and / or medical, with a smidgen of fun mixed it... we were to tired to venture out of the motel, this trip; however, we played SCRABBLE! What a great game. It mixes fun with learning while keeping those brain cells active. This is really important for the 50+ crowd, my peer group.
