Gathering more data

Dale met with primary care physician today to discuss the latest results of the CT scan. The lumps have spread more abundantly: lungs, lymph nodes, and chest.  Dale will go to another specialist for more tests and information. This doctor is anxious to proceed to find what is going on. There is concern. There is a problem. More tests, more data, more time.

He had a minimal day today. Weak, belabored breathing, and pain. Loss of hope, anger, and frustration have set in again. We had three nice days thinking he was on the mend. Good to feel that once in awhile.

Insurance causes delays and the doctor has to battle the system to do what needs to be done. Frustrating!
