So, the appointment went well today. My surgeon was in a good mood and super happy. He said that he was happy with how my wound is healing (it has closed more in the last week) That he now wants me to get in touch with the Oncologist to get the ball rolling for Chemo. I told him they told me he's booking out 2 months now. They said that if it takes that long to get in and see him, we'll have to find a different Oncologist.
So, at least I started off my week on a positive note. He told me that he expected me to have pain and reminded me that when we talked about the surgery, we discussed that this could take up to 6 months to heal. So, the nurses being worried, was not something he shared.
Oncology next. Well that and getting a port. But I'm going to schedule that after I see how long it'll take to get in to see the Oncologist. :)
This is good news!!!!

Great news!! :heart:
 
I'm sorry I haven't been around to respond to this. A lot of others have and in some great ways.
I just want you to know I'm paying attention and that you're important to me (and you are to a lot of others here too).

I'm really frustrated for you, and angry at the problems you've had. And I want you to know that I think you deserve a miracle.
No need to apologize. - For once. I honestly do believe that. I've been through enough.
This has to be a typo.

I assume you meant to write, β€˜I know I have shared dicks many times and have made them spurt over the yearsβ€”β€˜ 😁
:ROFLMAO: Sadly not as many as I'd have liked.
I’m so glad you had some good things happen today! I got really angry reading some of your recent posts about the care you’ve received, but you get to be the angry one and we’re just here to help be supportive however works best for you πŸ«‚
My goal was to keep better track of all these exchanges on my caring bridge, but I have been bad about keeping up with that. My days start out rough. I sit in this chair with a heating pad and blanket. Take all my meds and wait for my GI tract to wake up and pretend it doesn't hate me. When it finally does, I can typically try and walk around and feel a little less useless. But that alone is part of my frustration. I know this is my time to heal and let everyone take care of me. But not even being able to Vacuum or do laundry irritates me. Not even being able to pick up my grandson. Ugh.
So, even these little things make me angry and frustrated.
Good to hear things are moving forward Sassy.. I give you an internet hug !!!
:kiss: Thank you Jox.
 
How about putting a puzzle together ??? Something to do that doesn't strain you. Yet takes your mind off things

I've mostly been trying to color. Sitting up straight kind of hurts the abdomen if I do it for long. That's why I spend so much time in my lift chair. My son in law is trying to teach me cribbage. I do love puzzles, but I don't really have an area I could set one up and leave it. My craft room is upstairs, and I can't go up there yet.
At least I've gotten a couple new dick themed coloring books recently lol

Tw months to wait for the oncologist?! That is crazy! :mad:

I called to try and get that appointment set up and they said the soonest they can get me in is a month. So, I've emailed my surgeon to ask how he wants to proceed. I asked if there was any way to get me in sooner or transfer me to another Oncologist and she told me no and if I did transfer it would be just as long of a wait. So, either I transfer to another hospital, or he calls and pushes the Oncologist to get things going faster. :mad:

This is terrible. I hope he can push the oncologist!
 
Hey Sassy 🌹 I'm thinking of you and hoping that your surgeon can convince the oncologist to get you in sooner. It sucks that you're having to fight for your care while fighting this fucking cancer. I hope that the path forward quickly becomes smoother for you to navigate, so you can focus all your energy on getting your miracle and recovering from this ordeal. ❀️

It really stresses me out. 😑 thank you Angelica. I appreciate you. ⚘️

That is un-fucking-believable.
 
... I know I have had my share of times of being a dick and have hurt people over the years, but I definitely appreciate the love.

... :kiss:


I'm pretty new. You...a dick, Sassy? I can't believe that! LOL
I saw your update! Good news and hope you get your chemo appt soon!

But to help you heal, I provide some Fat Superman softy Get-Well-WANG pushed out to help you heal faster. :nana:

Fingers crossed you get an earlier appointment. Seems there would be more urgency, it's not like you're suffering a common head cold.

I thought I'd share a little of my current medical escapades. Starting last year I got a bill for $437 from the medical group (MG) I go to. It was for an office visit in April. I followed my late, dear Mom's advice, "Never pay a medical bill before you see the corresponding Medicare and secondary insuranceI statements". Lo and behold, Medicare and Tricare for Life (I'm a military retiree, over 65, and ToL is my secondary) had paid the bill and I owed nothing.

So, back to the MG I go, fully armed. They hem-and-haw awhile, but finally get back to me. They tell me the issue is Social Security has me coded as being female and I need to straighten that out. I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but I know Medicare takes gets all there data directly from SS of I took that with a grain of salt. Due diligence, and phone calls to SS, Medicare, and ToL confirmed what I already new; I am in fact male.

Back to the MG I go with this information. A few days later, I look at my MG account and the balance is $0. Aha! Me thinks the problem is corrected. So formerly fat, dumb, and happy me thinks I'm good to go. But no...last month I get a bill for the same amount, for an office visit on the same date but 2023 vs 2022. On that journey now to prove to the MG that I have a tallywacker. Maybe I should just get it cut off. But while it's vintage, I'm fond of it, it's paid for and has low milage.

Anyway, I thought I'd share my ridiculous medical billing adventure with you.

It is crazy how much I have to chase my care.

Oh I've definitely had my moments. But thank you. And thank you for the wang. :love: Much appreciated.

That would definitely be annoying. But I totally think you should take a picture and send it to them. :devilish:

... :devilish:
Insurance and the government have taken over medical care. I've been battling the medical morons at the VA for the past 10 years on my medical issues.

YW, Sassy. I'm getting a little bit more comfortable in posting the bod background. Glad it wasn't a significant enough distraction. :D
 
Keep up the fight, Sassy!

A friend of mine has been fighting throat cancer all summer. Radiation, surgery, chemo - the works. He came back to work last week 40 pounds lighter and weaker, but he's back to work and eating real food again.

It's not for the weak-hearted, but it is a battle you can and will win. All my best wishes to you :rose:

I guess I could do that. But I’m going to hang onto just in case your cure is obscure, rarely used, and perhaps a tad weird. An ancient cure with donated, slightly used tallywacker.

No. It definitely is not. I wish I had the chance to get more strength back before I started chemo. But obviously I don't and will just have to fight with whatever strength I do have.
:kiss:

Way to make a girl feel special. ;):love:
I just realized I have been remiss in not sending @SassySheDevil get well cock pics.
:love: Good morning to me!! Thank you, Guy!

LOL Luv them good morning wakeups, eh. I'd be willing to offer a good evening go to sleep version w/o all the bod background by PM if it would help you heal faster. Us hot older guys...or maybe not so hot older guy...are (is) always willing to aid a lady in distress. πŸ˜‰

Laughing with you over the dick themed coloring books!
:love:

Certainly not having a laugh over the first two statements. I feel for you! πŸ€— and hope hugs don't hurt.

My 82 yo sister has spent a lot of hospitalization and rehab time since early August after having 36 inches of small bowel removed and her difficulty with the healing. Fortunately for her cancer is not involved. But the entire thing at her age is not good. She had to be rehospitalized on Monday with infection and was released back to rehab today. She's been at home only a total of three days since early August.
