Talking to my oncologist this morning, he told me that when I come back next year (my usual January appointment), I should think of whether I want to change to coming in once a year instead of every six months. (I'm sure he forgot that we discussed this in July.) He said there was no rush to come to a decision as we had a year to think about it.
HA!!!
It hit me while I was walking down the four flights of stairs. I am discussing the future and making plans for a year for now. That is a huge accomplishment as there was a time when I couldn't think more than three weeks (the chemotherapy appointment) in advance. Both of us were making plans for me 12 months from now. I don't think that the oncologist knew how he lifted my mood just by telling me I had a year to make a decision. Such a small thing he did that had a huge effect.
:-D
