Just need to vent and get something out my mother will start her cancer treatment next week and her health is not all that good she is going to be treated for stage 2 lymphoma she likes her doctor and trust what he has to say and dose not feel that she needs to get a second option on this.I just question way before he got all of the test results from the bone marro that he told her that it was in stage one and then tells her that it is in stage 2 and told her that when all the test came back seems like he would have waited and not said anything tile he was sure about things might be thinking wrong but anyway that is the way I feel about it. We will be able to meet and talk with him next week she will start her first treatment on wed thru friday and first treatment will be about six hours then five then four all done in his office. Her mental status is not all that good right now she is very down and know that is pretty normal but she ask that question way me and I am sure that we would stay the same if we were told that we had cancer of some kind.Do not know of which cancer drug that they are
going to use and she had for gotten the name of it all that we can remember is it is in what they call smart drug list. Right now she has a bladder infection and is being treated her amunion system is not all that good and today was hard because they had to tell her all the side effects of treatment and it was very up setting. we will be with her during her treatment,s and for support. it has been one thing after another she was in one hospital for weeks with a kidney problem and they got that fix and said that their was nothing else wrong with her and that she could go home the doctors and the hospital that she was in was not good or the doctors for that matter but at the time it was the only one close by because it was an emergency. now she is using different doctors and hospital and likes them both which we are glad of at times like this you always have things running thru your head good and bad and questions that you want answer by the doctor which we
hope to get next week. will let you know what he has to say in themean time I am going to try and find out a few things about this doctor.
