Well, that was quick. I chased the medical oncologist (Greek God) up this morning and he has had a pow wow with the radio oncologist, so I was told to speak to him as they both thought hubby was eligible for SBRT on the distant mets. Did this at lunchtime and was asked when we would like it done. Whenever we replied. Got a text at 17:30 to ask if we are available TOMORROW at 15:50 for the planning scan and can we take the PSMA PET scan disc. So all set for treatment starting next week. Having to sort out an apartment near the hospital for a couple of weeks as he predicts it will be 5 sessions on alternate week days.
“I might park him whilst I have a little retail therapy”. L.O.L!!!
Yep, you have quality of life nailed, right there!
If this happens to me and Mrs AW, I want to be “parked” in the nearest Wetherspoons!
AW
Like a “galleon in full sail”. - L.O.L!!!!
Its a great morning for quotes on our happy site this morning!
AW
Hahahahaha! Hilarious thread! Go Mr AH
Hope it goes well today.x
A pre-condition of this ‘parking’ on behalf of all us wives:
Husbands must hand over credit cards to wives for better enjoyment of the retail therapy!
Already snaffled them. Hubby is parked with a drink, problem is that he has positioned himself looking at the entrances to three of the shops I like.
You’ll have to get a disguise - even more so if they are expensive shops:)
Ho You are all absolutely brilliant this morning!!
Thanks for the heads up about antiemetics WW. I sent a text to the oncologist and he came straight back saying I should have phoned him last night -slap on the wrist. I have got some stuff for him now so hopefully tomorrow will go a little better.
Hands up who's resembles a 'bent little finger '???
I've never heard that description before! Nearly fell out of my chair laughing!
