Full Abdomen Ultrasound With Fibroscan

I am scheduled for a full abdomen ultrasound with Fibroscan at Makati Medical Center (MMC) at 9AM.  Should be 30 minutes before my procedure.  Was there at 8:20 AM.  😀

Upon registration, I as advised that I could start drinking water.  I already brought my 500 ml tumbler.  I finish 500 ml every 15 minutes. That means, I was able to drink 1.5 liters of water before my name was called.

Since I finished early, decided to attend the Friday Mass at Greenbelt Chapel.  I was able to finish my Precious Blood chaplet devotion while at MMC.  Prayed the St. Gertrude chaplet at the chapel while waiting for the Mass.  Was able to pray the rosary as a community.

The Mass presider is Fr. Godwin.  Since it is the Feast of Saint John, Apostle and evangelist, the homily is about the saint.

Five things Saint John can teach us:

  • John helped us see the reality of incarnation—the Word became man. For a person to love, he must be visible, felt.
  • John showed us the reason why Jesus came  â€œI came so that you may have (fullness of) life,
  • On how we can experience life. Jesus’ command to love (during the last supper). They are known as followers of Jesus on how they love.
  • We should be present even in suffering or pain. Faithfulness of John with Mana Mary on the cross.  If we have love, we should be willing to remain.
  • If we love someone, we believe that person. John saw the empty tomb and he believed.

For lunch, went to Kenny Rogers Roasters where I ordered the Grilled Fish plate with two sides.  Friday is fasting and abstinence.  Since there are lots of people (even it is already late for lunch), it took a lot of time before I was able to get my food.

Proceeded home after.
