Good morning shipmates and friends:
Thought I would log on this morning and share a little story that occured on a conversation with our Navy Oncologist who has been there for us the whole step of the way since my cancer diagnosis in October 2006.
At first, our Doc's bedside manner was a bit abrupt and non-caring. We did not understand this at first since the diagnosis was incurable, but treatable and we were looking for some answers. But as we grew to understand the life of cancer and medical appointments, it became clear he tried to keep a bit emotionally-detached.
Well, that has changed after 17 months of working together and we have developed a GREAT relationship....he has a sense of humor now!
So, although he was bearing not-so-good news last Friday after the full-body PET Scan, he understood my wife's and my humor in getting through all of this and noted:
"Senior Chief.....I think this last chemotherapy treatment we decided to do just PISSED THE DAMN THING OFF!" Had all 3 of us laughing.
Always good to hear that sound.
Have a great Navy day,
SKCS Chuck Zwierzynski
