My radiologist also told me that my surgeon will probably be presenting my case to the tumor board. I never thought about how doctors might get together and discuss their cases. It makes sense. They probably share cases in which they want to hear other doctors’ professional opinions on. As teachers, we do this. We discuss students that we may need help reaching and seek how others have dealt with the same situation or what professional advice they may have. It helps to gather advice from others with experience.
It’s pretty amazing that my case will be discussed among the surgeons. I felt kind of special, special in a weird way. If I have to have an illness, it may as well be a unique situation. I’d like to know the recommendations of the other doctors for my treatment. How many cases like mine do they see?
There is so much going on. There is still so much I have to do before this is over. I’m going to be ok. I’m going to get through this amazingly. A year from now it will just be a memory.
