Re: FREE Brain MRI FREE
Turned out that MRI's are much much more expensive in Oregon than Chicago! Conveniently, my husband's going to Chicago for work soon and this was a good excuse for me to go see him while he's there! I'll have my brain MRI soon. Aaaah, I feel better now. I didn't want to have to lie to my doctor to get one, and now I get to help support a study that hopefully will help prevent others from having to do that, too. This came along at the perfect time for me.
Joe and Christine, I see you taught your new dog some old tricks!
Love, Celeste
