Cancer sucks. But we can live with it, fight it, and maybe even defeat it. This is my story. I hope it helps a patient, a caregiver or a loved one.

Hurry Up and Wait
My approach to treatments has always been to proceed as quickly as possible. My thinking is that delay can only hurt. Many people, including doctors, have told me things like a week or two won't matter. I don't buy it. In response I ask them if 6 months delay would do any harm. They respond "yes". So I ask them if the damage is done on the 180th day or does it build up day by day. The answer is obvious. But sometimes we have no choice and that is the case with my pursuit of SIR Sphere treatment. The Cancer Institute of NJ was closed Wednesday because of the snow. I'm now rescheduled for next Wednesday. So I'll wait.
In the meantime I have to deal with a domestic problem. The Oscar video is still generating comments and emails. It has gone to Oscar's head and he has developed a real attitude.
See for yourself:
What's the male version of Diva?

I think Oscar needs to go to the spa and then perhaps he can contact a designer for a specialty collar.
ReplyDeleteAs for your wait....that is annoying. I'm even waiting. Waiting for you to be able to tell us whats happening. Another week? That's torture even to me.
