Hello Steve and welcome to Cancer Chat.

It sounds like you're facing this situation with a remarkable sense of strength and resilience. Naming the tumour 'Eric' and adopting a positive attitude can make a significant difference in how you approach this experience.

The waiting period for results and discussions with the medical team can indeed be challenging, but it's great to hear that you're staying busy and engaged in activities. 

Your cancer specialist nurse sounds like a supportive resource, and having her clinic appointment scheduled is a positive step. Also, if you feel like asking someone with a medical background some questions in the meantime, our team of nurses are available Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m on this freephone 0808 800 4040.

If you ever feel the need to talk or have questions along the way, remember that this community is here for you. 

With best wishes,

Renata, Cancer Chat Moderator
