At just after 5pm the doctor came round to tell Steve and I that the bone scan had come back confirming a cracked rib but everything else was clear.
I let out such a huge sigh!! I know it sounds strange but was so happy it was a cracked rib!! I feel like I haven’t let out a breath since Sunday night when he was so bad. I just couldn’t help think of all of the things that it could have been and when they said they were sending Steve for a bone scan, my mind went into over drive.
Steve looked at me puzzled after we were told and when I explained my fears! His response was don’t be silly of course it was only a cracked rib!
I really should learn to deal with all of this more like Steve and as much as I would love to I know I’m simply a born worrier! But hey he is home now and I’m so pleased.
He is stopping Sutent as of today as it has been 3 weeks and they have decided to stop it a week early so his body can recover. He will then re start Sutent in 2 weeks time. Back on to the regime of 4 weeks on and 2 weeks off.
So its lots of rest and more morphine for patient Wright, whilst he recovers from this and a full investigation into how he got a cracked rib in the first place! Which Steve is convinced I did to him! But the jury is out on that one! As I think it maybe from his skiing escapade with Ginge!! But I’m sure Steve if he hasn’t already will share with you his theory of me kicking him!! And my plea is that it was in self defense your honour!
Hi Steve and Sally
ReplyDeleteglad to hear you are back at home Steve and that you got to the bottom of what was causing so much pain - now you just have to stay still long enough for the rib to repair!!! hope you have a better couple of weeks.
love Murray and Gen x
