What Could It Be

Mary was comfortable in her reclining chair as she reflected on her 79 years and how wonderful they had been from joyous childhood to loving grandmothering and then the phone rang.

The surgery called to arrange for her annual check up which was a surprise as she had never had one before. After they had been completed the results showed that she needed more tests and scans followed by hurriedly arranged tests and more scans as there might be something there that might become serious.

The reclining chair became less comfortable as Mary wondered what the next test could reveal.
