... and now we wait

Mixed feelings today. I had my six monthly CT scan this morning and they managed to get a canula into my chemo veins on the first attempt!  That's first time they've managed to do that in well over a year.

I see the oncologist on the 18th for the results of the scan. I feel pretty good at the moment, but I can't help thinking that this run of good luck can't last forever (though obviously I hope it does!).

From experience I know that the next 12 days will drag and anxiety levels will rise as that date draws closer, not so much in me but in my close family.

The only one not getting stressed is my dog, apart from the fact that she wants to go for a walk NOW! lol She is always good as a distraction ;-)

 

Cheers
Dave

    Dave ..... glad they got your vein in one!  We can all relate to your feelings and it goes without saying that we will be keeping everything crossed for you. x

  • Thanks to everyone for your kind thoughts! It must be that time of the year when all our scans coincide ;-)

    Rani was thoroughly exhausted after her walk. I was thinking about other things and went into automatic mode throwing her hockey ball (heavy, indestructable and they float!) as far as I could every time she brought it back!

    Our son and his girlfriend moved into their first home together today - another small milestone on the journey :-)
