Hi Joicy!
Told you last week that I had an appointment with my onc. Monday.
I was expecting him to tell me that we would just continue to keep an eye
on the situation, but he threw me off balance by recommending that I start
chemo again. I was so stunned that I didn't think to ask ANY intelligent
questions. I have another appt. with him on July 10 (and then we leave for
Santa Fe on the 11th). I had just bought tickets the Friday before my
appt. to go to France. (I have always wanted to see Monet's Garden!) I
think that trip has now been put on the back burner. I know he said that
he would like me to start chemo as soon as possible. I don't think that I
want to have a treatment and then leave for foreign soil. So, my world is
once again in turmoil. These past 2 years have been so nice from the
standpoint that I wasn't having to schedule my life around appts. Don't
get me wrong.......I am really grateful that I have had 2 such wonderful
years, just disappointed at the suggestion of more chemo. I am not a
decision maker and this cancering thing always makes me do that!!!! (The
decision being that he did said that I could continue to do nothing.) Oh,
me oh my!!!!
