I am thankful... day 3

November 3:I am thankful for doctors that truly listen and treat their patients. Without doctors like Dr. Zhu, we may have never known about the cancer.

We though he was getting Alzheimer's Disease. We thought something had gone terribly wrong with his new medication. We worried about him losing his memory. But we were wrong.

Dr. Zhu listened to my grandfather's symptoms... truly listened. He ordered tests and scans, and before they could leave the lab he asked to see them. It wasn't Alzheimer's Disease at all. It was severe brain cancer. We learn a little more about his condition every day, but the fact of the matter is this... we never would have known had it not been for Dr. Zhu. And for that... I am so thankful.
