Sorry folks to keep you waiting so long! I didn't mean to, but time just slipped by. Went camping with Dave for the last time this year. (More about that in another post.) Still no word from the Edmonton surgeon. No one is returning the calls I left on their answering machine and I get no reply. Thankfully I have been appointed a very kind oncology social worker, who has called Edmonton on my behalf. She was told that the surgeon says that my case is complex and that he needs time to review it. Meanwhile my oncologist is getting impatient and just wants to get on with things, but no further treatment can be decided on till we hear from Edmonton. So I am to stay on the 3 week chemo cycle for now. Eventually also this chemo will stop working. Yikes! On the up-side: I am feeling fine. Just had chemo yesterday (oxaliplatin). This morning was rough but I am good now, can use my hands again and I slept reasonably well last night. That's always a bonus. Thank You to all the people who e-mailed me to check and see if I was ok. Yes, I am still here. I haven't fallen off the planet yet! SanTeh! 👻
Glad to hear that you are feeling fine and that you have a social worker that's helping you get some answers. We are always thinking of you and Dave.
