Four of my best friends from Los Angeles, California are coming to spend the weekend with me! We spent a lot of time together during my employment at KPFF Consulting Engineers during the mid 1990's in Santa Monica, California. We have enjoyed many weekends together since I left KPFF and started my own engineering business in Portland, Oregon. In fact, they came to Tulsa to visit me when I was first being treated.
Unfortunately, on Friday night I started to bleed internally as evidenced by significant black stools. By the time they arrived on Saturday, it had progressed to the point that I needed to seek medical attention. I met with the doctor and made a deal that I would spend the day with my friends and check myself into the hospital that evening.
We had a very enjoyable day catching up over lunch on the Tulsa Riverfront and watching the Los Angeles Lakers playoff game.
I checked into the hospital as promised that evening looking very jaundiced, and my faithful friends stayed with me until almost 3:00 AM, when I was finally asleep in the intensive care.
