So I haven't said much about this because I don't like to bring down the house, but I do need to say something today.

My 87 year old grandmother, who is one of my very favorite people, has been diagnosed with Hodgkin's disease. She had a pet scan yesterday and we will hear the results today. I'm very nervous because she is declining rapidly.
I really feel that the hospital and the doctors office let us down in this process. They never followed up on her CT scan results and now it's probably too late :(

I'm so sorry to hear this, Michelle. Are you close geographically so you can spend a lot of time with her now?

Well we got the word. Her cancer has spread to her bones and she's at a stage four. Her doctor ordered hospice care for her
I am really sorry to hear this Michelle. :( It's hard to know what to say beyond "I'm here for you" like the rest of the CDR.

Take care x

I found a USB memory stick, that had been lost for a couple of years, at the bottom of my chest freezer :D
Years ago I found a camera I thought I'd lost in my freezer and it still worked.
(...if I had a £1 for every time someone shouted 'freeze frame' when I told them about it.................
