Diagnosis and Playtime – we made snow!

A tough couple of weeks. We won't see the Urologist until July to determine next steps. With cancer in his lymph nodes, we now know where it is after two MRIs, two bone scans, three CT Scans,  PSA tests every 3 months, 3-month check-ins with the urologist, one colonoscopy (negative), two cystoscopies, a flushing, and two biopsies. It's all a been a waiting game to see where the cancer cells migrate. They go on about cancer survivors, but treatment survivors need medals.

Yesterday hubby wasn't feeling well at all. Headache all day, feeling like he had flu. He thinks he has a fever, but isn't 37C. normal? sigh. The biopsy procedure took a great deal out of him. I wonder at all these tests. The prep alone is stressful (an enema, then the drive into town). We'll see how he is today. They give you a sheet of paper in case of infection from the biopsy. You hand it to the ER staff to let them know about the biopsy. It must be common to have an infection.

In the meantime, I look back at last week.

I saw this on TV. Some dippy actress was showing us how to do this. It wasn't a bad activity, except my older granddaughter was reluctant at first. They grow up so quickly!!! We sort of sucked her into the fun!

It feels like snow: hair conditioner and baking soda. Good clean fun!
