Lucky

We are sitting in the main building of M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, passing time until my requested arrival time of 11:30. The Texas Medical Center is enormous…many, many buildings representing medical specialties from the most common to the rarest of the rare. To say the monstrous campus, comprising a huge chunk of downtown Houston, is impressive would be an understatement. On one hand, the enormity of the healthcare facilities is spellbinding. On the other, I feel like a tiny bubble in a vast ocean…with so many bubbles, the energy that can be devoted exclusively to me must be miniscule. I realize, of course, that is an unrealistic perspective. But it is how I see the world among this sea of people looking for options.  I will find out soon, within a few days, what they recommend for me. If not for her incredible support and generosity with mi nova’s time, this undertaking would be considerably more taxing. I am a lucky man, indeed.
