The Indianapolis "hum"

So, if you're not from the area, the Indianapolis "hum" is a reference to our neighbors up north in Kokomo Indiana.  For several years, natives of K-town were convinced there was some sort of weird, low frequency hum that was polluting their air.  Numerous news stories were written, environmental studies were conducted, etc. etc.  Ultimately, there was never any evidence that this "hum" heard by so many even existing.  But, I'm convinced that it moved to Indy last week.  On Friday around 9am, this humming noise was quite apparent to all those up here in city of Lawerence.  I was working in my home office and Jenny was still in bed.  This noise sounded like some high powered vacuum system and it was REALLY annoying.  I just knew trouble was brewing upstairs in our bed.  So we had a slight meltdown in the morning..... really it was more of a full blown meltdown thinking about it in retrospect.

Jenny has always been very sensitive to the slightest noise- clicking of the ceiling fan, water dripping, my snoring.  Anyways, around 930am she calls me up and is quite hysterical wanting to call the Lawerence township center and give them a piece of her mind!  Friday turned out to be a very "sensitive" day for Jenny.  She was pretty frail all day and exhausted.  I think everything just finally came to a head.  But we did hear some good news!  The Midwest proton radiotherapy institute did call and let us know that Jenny's insurance company has been very pleasant and the insurance arrangements for the proton therapy are being worked out. Finally some progress!

Jenny also was experiencing the "wind in the ears" again so she called her Neurosurgeons nurse and we have a follow up appointment with him on April 1st. He also ordered another MRI for the morning.  I suspect that Jenny still is experiencing some swelling in her noggin as the decadron gets worked out of her system.  She has been off the steroids for about two weeks and they do stay in your system for a little while.  Regardless, getting the MRI done on Wednesday will be good.  She would probably have to have one for the proton therapy so this is killing two birds with one stone.  We are also meeting with her GI docter to review everything.  Jenny has not been able to put on any weight over the last three/four months and meeting with the GI doctor is good step.  We both suspect that there is some sort of hormone imbalance but we need to get the scientific proof from the team of doctors.
