blood draw

mommy had her annual genetic counselling at UW hospital again. the advisor really encourage genetic blood test for colon cancer gene. well... mommy and daddy finally decided to go for it, if insurnace pays for it. it's costly - couple thousands dollar. The blood-draw guy is inexperienced, unfortunately. it took him > 15 minutes to get blood from mom. mom kept telling him it was sore, numb and painful when he poked around for right spot N times without any successful one. oh well... unlucky =(
