Still Waiting

Last Thursday was Chemo day at Humber River.  The oncologist has requested an urgent biopsy to rule out a tumour.  Tony's 'M' protein went up from 16 to 22.  (the day he was diagnosed it was 58) This number should be zero.  Should be getting lower, not rising.  Doctor also mentioned that perhaps it's because he missed two chemo treatments to allow the antibiotics to do their job.  No one has answers at this point.  Friday was a Good Friday, a holiday.  No one worked.  Monday, no one worked.  Today, both oncologist and urologist are away on vacation (great!) and the secretary won't be getting a message to her till Thursday.  So, really, nothing to report.  The patient feels no pain. Still waiting......

Not a good feeling.

After 5 months of things moving progressively, we have now hit an obstacle, a brick wall, a mountain.
