So today was the checkup with the myeloma specialist at NEMC.
I was completely overwrought.
I forgot my list, my graphs, my anecdotal evidence.
I didn't have beakfast or vitamins or tea or water.
I was late and had a headache.
But I was still ready to do battle. I was going to put my foot down and demand another delay of treatment. I was going to win. I have things to do!
Before I could even start making my case, he said "I'm fine with delaying as long as you are being closely monitored by the local oncologist vis-a-vis kidney function."
I had won before I had even unsheathed my weapon.
The next three months are mine.
I will be going to the Milblog.....as a matter of fact.....I'm speaking.
