Well, I just saw my surgeon for my post op visit. He is thrilled with how everything went and looks, so I am on to the next phase. I can't say enough about my surgeon and all of the people in his office, they set everything up for me. So, appointments are my life now. I have four appointments with four different doctors all made as I left the office today. I'm going to need to start a calendar just for my cancer! I have an appointment with my surgeon in a few months, an appointment with the radiologist for scans, an appointment with the medical oncologist, and an appointment with the radiation oncologist. Whew! I'm tired already and haven't even started treatment. I just need to get the tail end of this cold gone so I can start treatment with no hold ups.
On a side note, the doctor did tell me that he sees nothing but a positive outcome for me not only because medically things look good, but that I have a great attitude, and obviously a lot of great support systems in place. So, THANK YOU! Everyone who reads this blog is my support system and I cannot thank you enough. It does make me sad for the people that do not have this kind of support system, so I am going to be thinking about ways we can change that. I'll keep you updated after the first appointment!
Hi Kim, it is nice that you have a really good support system in place. I know that some people don't have that, as well as that not all people get the help from there doctors like you are getting. My thoughts and prayers are going out to you and your family at this time. It is good to hear that you are getting all the help possible.
