Hi Donna,
Yes, I think that seeing your Surgeon, and hearing what they plan for you does seem real and scary, it’s as if it might not be going to happen until he/she tells you the details, I can remember it well. Hang in there though, Donna, because one day you will look back and realise it’s all finished. I hope you get a date from your Consultant on monday, it then gives you a time scale and is better than endless wondering, believe me. I’m thinking of you, and I’m sure lots of others are.
It is my last Rads session Monday, 11.20, I can’t believe 3 weeks of them will have gone by! Mind you, I’ve got another prob now, I had bloods done earlier this week (a lovely locum G.P) and she rang me yesterday afternoon to tell me that my haemaglobin had gone down a bit, AND I have an over active thyroid now!! She made me an appointment for this afternoon and gave me tablets for that, too! Oh, well, never mind… it’s been that sort of year.
OH is a great support, he’s the sort of person who doesn’t look on the black side of anything, but don’t get me wrong, none of us are perfect, and he doesn’t cook, clean, etc. Actually, because he is so upbeat about the outcome of my “illness” I do feel I have to try not to get upset about it, myself, and as you know that’s not always possible!Keep in touch, Heather.xx
