Half Life – 45 – a gamble September 10th, 2021 When your oncologist calls out of the blue ten days before the scheduled appointment you know there might be a level of urgency. Dr T is great, trusted, honest, and open to the point of brutality. His love of wine, and our side-line discussions about it, might have had a small part to play in building the connection. He does, however, make taking decisions easy by providing all the information without any lily-gilding or flowery language. When asked, he gives a view on what he thinks the best decision is, while being clear it’s not his decision. He dismissed the ‘do nothing and let the cancer take its course’ suggestion as ‘a bad idea and certainly not now’, even if agreeing it should always be an option under consideration. He presented a different route I hadn’t known was, potentially, available and wanted to get the discussion started quickly.
Good to hear another option is emerging and really hoping you get accepted and have the drugs. Continuing to send whatever support and encouragement we can to you all.
