As Promised - Update on the Health Saga

[veecatz]

Well it was a long night and a long day - and sadly no results from the consultation today. Lots of various tests done and repeat X-Ray. The tumour is still there but hasn't grown and he cant see anything else on the chest x ray. The important question as to whether it is cancer or benign wont be answered until this time next week - after the CT scan results are in. The lung nurse specialist could see how upset I was and promised he would phone me personally next Monday after chasing up the scan results. Sooooooo - nothing can be done and I have spent enough energy on the whole thing - I am going to let go of it all - and occupy myself with normal things until I know what I am dealing with. Ollie my cat has the right idea - animals just live one minute at a time - are totally oblivious to the future. He basks in the sun when it appears, and snuggles up on the bed when its cold.

I am going to take a leaf out of his book this week, and just chill out. Thank you all for you on-going support it means so much to me. I was asked if I was still smoking - and proudly said that I wasn't - even though 2/3 months doesn't seem long to the doctor man - it sure is to me. I will keep my posts more upmarket this week in keeping with Ollie's philosophy on life - although he was in an almighty scrap with another cat earlier on!!

By the way - the pic of Ollie was one I took when he was in 'jail' at the animal sactuary before he rescued me!!!

Hi Vee, isn't that just typical - keep moving the goalposts and you dangling on a string or knife edge. You are strong, you have not succumbed to sparking up with all this going on and that's just brilliant. Keep your pecker up, enjoy your lounging around with Ollie and speak again soon.

Love and hugs, Andi xx
