Up early this morning to get to the hospital for 08:15. Mr B went straight in for his blood test then we went to the hospital cafe for breakfast. After we’d filled up on toast and coffee it was back to the oncology suite to wait for the blood results to come back. All good, so he went in to the treatment room at 10:00 and I went off to kill 3 hours of time. It was raining so I drove to the supermarket car park and sat in the car reading the news online and doing a Sudoku or two then I went round the supermarket, really taking my time! I might’ve bought a few things I didn’t really need…..
The hospital car park was full when I got back and I ended up parking at the far end of the overflow car park. At least it’s free, might be the only hospital car park in the world that is! On the walk in I bumped into an acquaintance whose husband is currently having chemotherapy. It was nice to chat to her. It’s early days for them and I felt like an old hand at the “caring for a loved one with cancer” business. Mr B was ready to go when I got there so we said our goodbyes to everybody and drove home to unpack shopping and have a late lunch.
Not an eventful day, but it’s so rarely that things go so smoothly that it felt like a successful one!
