I cannot begin to tell you the anger I felt yesterday when I saw my MOM, and she told me this story!
The "Oncologist" as he calls himself, told her she had Leukemia, she asked him to write it down for her so she could remember the exact name of it. He did. She and stepdad went back last week for a follow up, he told her he had never told her she had Cancer, she explained the first visit to him, he repeated that HE had never told her that.
Now, what kind of stupid idiot is this?? To put her through all of the worrying, depression, and everything else that goes along with digesting this diagnonsis. I felt so bad for her. She is making an appointment today at MD Anderson Cancer Hospital in Houston. I told her she had to call today, when we return home from the cruise, we are taking her. She seemed so relieved that she does not have to carry this on her own. Its going to be ok, because I am going to see to it that it is !!!!! After about 10 min. we were laughing and giggling and carrying on about our trip.
I am so appreciative of everyones outpouring of Love and Support, I cannot tell you how much you all mean to me. I hope I can be as supportive and loving to ya'll.
As for my Dr. appt., I love this new Dr., he is so attentive, thorough, and kind. I even forgot to tell him I had IBS until he started to examine me. He started spurting out IBS info right and left, I didn't tell him I already knew all of it, I was just so appreciative and shocked that he knew so much. The chest pain IS the Costrochondritis hanging on, its just going to take a while for it to work its way out, . At least I know what it is. HE is also sending me for blood work, and testing for everything imagineable. After all of these years, I have not been tested for Celiac. That was the first thing he mentioned.
I have to tell you, I am in awe. I love this guy!!! How blessed could I be?
As for the cruise, it has not been canceled because of the hurricane. I hear we will probably go on a cruise to nowhere, I guess that means we will go out far enough so the passengers can't see land and go around in big circles?!?! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, and thats good enough for us. We just want to have fun !!
Gods Blessings to you all, I will update when we know more.
Thank ya'll again !
