Directing traffic

At my oncologist appointment today, Roslyn and I told the oncologist’s assistant about the difficultly we’d had getting an appointment for a PET scan. The scan is an important tool to find the extent of the lymphoma so we can choose an effective treatment. We’d expected to be able to get one last week.

When the doctor appeared in the exam room a few minutes later, he was less than happy.

“It will require stepping on toes. Fortunately, I know which toes to step on,” my oncologist said. Two minutes later, I heard that I had a PET scan appointment for two days from now.

It’s going to be a busy week. Thank God for that. I’ll let you know what happens.
