She announced she needed food--not a surprise given her last meal was at 8:30AM. We decided on Mandarin Gourmet in Palo Alto--it is just three blocks from the main entry to the Stanford campus. We had pot stickers, orange beef and salt and pepper prawns. Mary ate good sized portions with gusto and has had no tummy difficulties since dinner (it is now 10PM). This was Mary's first meal at a real restaurant in several weeks. She hasn't been feeling strong enough, without pain nor confident of her stomach to eat out until tonight. It was a real treat to take her out tonight!
Overall, Mary had a great day. Because of the fasting for the scan, she could not eat and we were concerned she'd have problems because of an empty stomach--recall, yesterday was all day grazing to avoid stomach problems. Turns out, not a bit of a problem!
Tomorrow Mary sees the surgeon. Perhaps we'll learn something about the PE/CT scan results.
