A 4 week relfection.
well so much for my consutation, after waiting another 4 months my consultant went off sick, ok he's got a stand in, who doesnt know my name and couldnt read my notes quick enough, so another wham bang thank you mam your 5 minutes are up,theres the door,see you in 4 months. which does not help the other people,prosthetics and dentistry,who are on the side line waiting to get started on me again, it doesnt help me being in limbo or trying to explain to the clowns in beurocracy or the people chasers...
I am looking after my dad he got diagnosed in nov 09 with bowel cancer, they removed the tumor but there were still cancer cells.....so he started chemo, then got told in march that the cancer had spread to his liver........he is kinda doing ok, had a blood transfusion yesterday because he is now anaemic, this made him feel better.
