An update from the Kezzerbird

2 minute read time.

Hello my lovelies.......................Yesterday was another 3 month check up with my consultant and this time I got to see my mad oncologist who I haven't seen for 6 months.........his face said it all when he clapped eyes on me, the biggest grin, I think I've ever seen. He just stood there in front of me and said "You look fantastic" my reply was "I know...I was born this way!" he went a got his other two partners in crime (my surgeons) and they stood there slapping each other and going on about who did the best work on me!!

I had to remind them that who did what to me and jokingly said You turned me into a bag lady (stoma), you gutted me like a fish and you poisoned me so well I almost died................I also may have had a little some thing to do with the results too. They all laughed and my oncologist said "Oh yes, just a bit, your fighting spirit and giving us grief (Oh yes, I gave em hell!)

They never expected me to pull through so I suppose they deserve to be chuffed with themselves. It was just so funny seeing these consultants behaving like a bunch of school boys and showing it, mind you they are all stark raving mad, well with me anyway, I tend to bring out the worst in people!!

My surgeons left the room and left me with the mad Cornish oncologist who got serious for a moment, after examining me ask me about reversing my stoma, to which i said no, because there is a good chance I still have cancer cells in me and while they are sleeping, no one is going in there and waking the buggers up, he agreed. He reminded me of what they had to do and how tough they where on me but they all felt I was strong enough to take it, then back came the grin on his face and he said he doesn't want to see me now until April. The next thing he said was "Right woman, you have out stayed your welcome" and shut the door on me. I could hear the git laughing down the corridor. You may think that was a bit rude of him, but that is the kind of relationship we have, a lot of banter and laughter. I love it and so does he. Love and hugs to those that want them.................Carol x

    Fabulous news Carol - it's always good to get confirmation that everything's OK.  You really are an inspiration my lovely - you've done absolutely brilliantly.  Talk to you soon

    Big hugs, Kate xxx

  • Hi Carol,

    I think it's great you have such a lovely relationship with your docs. Perhaps you should charge them a fee to show you off to their students! (lol) My docs are very formal and no fun at all - I make the occasional jokey remark and all I'm met with is blank stares!

    Best wishes,

    KateG
