this is truly the day the Lord has made and i am rejoicing like crazy! please join me!
as directed i called dr. Sikora at 7pm.
she took my call directly.
i reiterated to her that i was not satisfied with the radiologists prognosis, she agreed, but said that we have to go to vanderbilt b/c this guy runs the show here in BG.
she again said to me that we mustn't wait to begin treatment while we search for a second opinion. i agreed.
then she asked me when doug's oncology appt was and i told her wed.
she said, "call me back in an hour..i need to make a call".
within 10 minutes SHE called ME back and said the following:
Sheri,
at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning you call Dr. Steve Smith he is an oncologist and a good one.
you will be getting an appt. time for doug
tell doug to come in and be prepared to have his first dose of CHEMO!!!!!!
i about fell over right there standing outside WKU (V was swimming)
She said we don't need to wait and that she was pulling a favor!
oh i love her....if any of you feel compelled to send her a note of thanks:
Dr. Carol Ann Sikora, Graves Gilbert Clinic, BG, KY
i was compelled to come right through the phone and kiss her!
i hung up and called douglas of course.
told him the good news, he sighed and said how happy he was to 'get started'.
