Tuesday, December 14, 1971 Bill back to the clinic

A nice day. Clouding up a dite in p.m. Bill had to go back to the clinic today. He was examined more thoroughly than yesterday. On the prostate gland they found a lump. He has to go back third of January for a operation. His uric acid test was high, blood pressure high. Billie and I down to Dorothea’s to get him after he got back from Boston. Dorothea picked him up at the bus station. I cleaned up my bedrooms today, washed rugs etc.
