MAYO CLINIC EVALUATION MORNING ONE UP AND UNFOLDING...........

The 5:15 a.m. wake-up call that greeted me this morning was responded to faster than I expected to meet it.  I am perky and moving quick enough at this early hour that I am ready to meet the hotel shuttle to the Mayo Clinic with more than twenty minutes to spare.  Checking in with Mayo Clinic for the Blood Labs, by 6:45 a.m., the process of checking in fir each individual appointment, or procedure, is necessary.  Utis done by the registrars at the front desk in very efficient order.  Although I was allowed a bedtime snack as a diabetic, despite the twelve hour fast; I did not have it and only drank half of a diet Dr. Pepper, and sipped on water through the night.  It's time to head downstairs for the shuttle and meet the first heat and humidity of the day...........Fr.  Troy
