The more things change, the more they
stay the same…. Or something like that.
Ofttimes it feels as if while time
marches ahead, it’s more of the same.
Same worries, more or less. Just
different time period.
George had a colonoscopy last week as the
advice of his surgeon. The hope was that
it could tell us what is causing George to experience discomfort after every
meal. Perhaps there was a mechanical
reason (adhesion issue) or perhaps there would be evidence of the colon closing
in due to outside forces.
On the positive side, the adhesions
look to be doing okay. On the negative
side, the found a “friable growth” – or something that should not be
there. A biopsy was taken and now we
await to hear if it is something to be worried about or not. Wait…. Wait… here we go again!
In just a few weeks he has his
bi-annual scheduled CT scan. And then we
have to wait a few days for those results as well.
This makes us think of those days
three years ago where we had tests and then had to wait for results. The waiting can make one a little
anxious. That’s for sure.
At the same time, we have some
concerns about his mom. Earlier this
week it looked as though this would be the end of her time here on earth. Today, as always, the energizer bunny struck
again. If only WE could be as resilient
as she is! She sure puts us on a roller
coaster! You think we’d be used to it by
now!!
August is nearly done – it’s on to
September! Let’s keep our fingers
crossed!!
