Nancy and I show up for our canceled, then re-scheduled appointment. At this point, we’re just going to meet with a nurse to discuss the pathology report. That’s all we cared about!
As it turns out, once we arrive after a short wait, we are ushered back to an examining room. We, I think, totally only expect good news. Dr. Regan pokes his head in and say…I’m with another patient right now, I’ll be back in 15 minutes…but YOU ARE CURED.
So the next day of the rest of my life started with those three words. We learn in the consultation that nothing really will change for me except to be careful of some drugs that are hard on kidneys, all NSAIDs for example. Also, no contact sports where the remaining kidney might take an unfortutious shot.
So it it…back the un-sureal world. We are all thankful. Thankful for the docs, my luck in early detection, and the support of all of our friends and family.
