prayers today for A, wife of our dear priest M, whose son is having a cancerous kidney removed today. May it go well and that the cancer hasn't spread.
Lord, in your mercy ....

Empathy heading your way, Firenze.
Mrs Vole's oncologist has been brilliant so far and she is now on a (very expensive!) cancer growth inhibitor tablet and the usual aromatase inhibitor for the inoperable metastasis and all going well so far!
Treatment path now laid out. I have a Pill to take daily. An 'enhanced' mammogram (in colour!) on the 16th. Then a meeting with the consultant on the 31st, leading presumably to a surgery date. So, by NHS standards, things going at a fair lick.
Sounds encouraging, Firenze. Speed can be the key to this thing, and it sounds as if they aren't messing around.
A friend of our has just done the same thing and had the surgery two days ago, but she had a question: Why is it that the word 'cancer' takes the masculine gender in many languages?
Not totally smooth, since my consultant wasn't available, so I had to be slotted into another doctor's schedule, which meant not 11.20, but 12.30. Nothing like an extra 70 minutes suspense. And then a CT scan.
Thinking of you @Firenze . x
Mrs Vole had to stop her Ribo treatment for a while due to low lymphocytes -now picked up thankfully but now something has shown up on her ECG and she's got to have a heart scan! Appointments are exhausting...
Some good news, I just had my every six months checkup with my surgeon, everything looks good. She sent me for my yearly mammogram and sonogram in April, and my every two year bone density scan. Then I see her again in July.

As it happens, Mr F has a dental appointment at the same hospital for some major work later in the afternoon. So that's our day sorted.
Also of Mrs Vole and @Merry Vole .
Mine too
I feel fairly calm about it - or maybe that's the diazepam - and at 75 you don't expect a vast futurityin any case.
Mr F now has a couple of new teeth, which he is going to try and not break on anything.
So an evening of omelette. And gin.
Praying and sending love!!
The gin sounds a good idea!
Prayers ascending .....

So, results of that on the 15th, op on the 27th.

So now I'll have to displace my anxiety on to something else.
Amen
