Thanks to Angela, Rome, and Lilly who came out today in the rain to drive me around, to save my collapsing hips. We dropped off and picked up the car from getting its service, went to the doctor’s, and then went to get a second MRI.
The doctor’s appointment with a PA worked out even though I still don’t know what exactly is wrong with me. She was able to get the second MRI that very day, and finally an appointment for Wednesday with The Guy, the hip specialist at Cedars-Sinai who seems to have few and random office hours. I prefer St John’s but my GP recommended this Orthopedic practice. My hand is getting frozen from all this finger crossing!
(From the 15th: I’ve spent the day propped up in bed with a pillow under my knees and a pillow on my lap holding up my computer, in complete comfort! I don’t know if it’s a healing maneuver (getting up for various reasons is still a struggle) but I’m thinking being comfortable can’t be bad.)
These two pictures below are from Lilly. What a sweetie, she kept me company all day. Rome, Lilly, and I had brunch (mighty Yum except for the too thick French toast that no one liked) while Angela and Oliver did a chore.

Lilly made a picture in the mirror.
