Day 1

1 minute read time.

No news today but let's take a step back.

Last Monday my husband had a colonoscopy.We were ushered into a tiny room with not enough chairs and no windows to be told a polyp had been found at it was 'significant'. The next step they said was a CT scan in the next 10 days then the case would be discussed by the Multi Disciplinary Team on the Monday following the CT scan. On the same day I was told my mother has a nodule on her right lung.

The following day an appointment arrived by taxi with an appointment letter for a CT scan 2 days later!

Today is Tuesday, the meeting was yesterday, and we have heard nothing. I have had every phone we own with me all day and jumped everytime one rang. I have been very rude and told everyone to @GET OFF THE PHONE'

Tonight I visited my mother to be told a meeting has been arranged for tomorrow for us tomeet the chest specialist.

I am someone whohas spent my whole adult life in control and now I have none. I don't know how I am going to cope. I go back to work a week on Monday and I can't see how there will be enough hours in a day.
