PHONE CALL

Hi Mark, I have had lots of these calls although the first with the surgeons after my op and after discharge was in person to check how the stoma was getting along. Mind you, they told me they had got it all out while I was still on the ward.

When they rang before the op to tell me I had a blood clot in my lung so the op was cancelled and I needed to inject myself with blood thinners, that wasn't a scheduled call.

When I saw my oncologist the other day the CT scan results weren't in so she booked a call in 4 weeks to tell me the results. We aren't expecting bad news but if there is any she'll tell me then.

Overall I'd say prepare for anything and hope for the best. And try not to meet trouble half way. As I always say, worry does not cure cancer (or anything else).

All the best,

Thanks latestart 

My wife Is of the opinion that if its anything bad they would bring me in to tell me.

I've had phone calls before with the surgeon but that was to organise the surgery. 

Ah well , I've only a few days to wait anyway how. 

Best wishes 

Mark

I think your  wife has a good point Mark
