Dr B was optimistic from the blood tests that I should be in line for the operation in February. He says that he will be discussing yesterday’s scan with the liver surgeons next Wednesday and I should receive a letter inviting me for an appointment to see them and possibly with a date for surgery. So I play the waiting game again.
Minna says that the Chemo is likely to stay in my system for weeks, which is why I still have the skin problems and splitting fingers. For this reason they are giving me a break from Chemo before surgery. Dr B says the pre surgery Chemo is far more important than post surgery so if I can’t tolerate four more it shouldn’t make much difference to the outcome.
I try to make the most of these hospital trips by doing a bit of shopping prior to the visit, which dilutes the boring predictability of it all.
It seems Carisbrooke High, my place of work for the past seven years, is closing after all. They have been prevaricating about making any final decisions, but now the council have decided the site will be used for a new faith school and all the staff will have to re-apply for jobs within the authority whatever happens to Island education. No doubt I will need to discuss my position with the Head, which I plan to do when I visit the school towards the end of the month. It all feels very wierd, but it is strangely comforting to know my work situation would have changed even if I hadn’t got ill.
I have finally worked out how to rotate the pictures in photoshop so you no longer have to stand on your head to view them. No prizes for guessing who this is trying to be!!!
