Perhaps, I have graduated to the level of acceptance which is a bit squewed.
I am questioning my acceptance of an oncologist providing diagnositic evaluation of a little mass without a work-up done in a routine office visit performed my a qualified physician.
Is it overkill to go straight to the "big dog" for a cancer evaluation without labs and scans that suggest going to that expertise of an oncologist is necessary?
I surprised myself by how comfortable I felt in the oncology office.
For some folks it may feel like a scary place.
For me, it's a place where I receive exceptional care; an environment where I feel a safety blanket wrapped around me.
It isn't scary if you are already beating the odds and hanging around enjoying your time.
It is a place where people are there to help.
I have such a great respect for my care team.
I am so lucky to have such a wonderful facility.
I am lucky too, that the mass is just another fiberous, again.
Does anyone else question how comfortable they feel in a world that scares others?
Is the source of this faith, acceptance or denial, a combination of all or something else -- insanity perhaps?
Can I have a gold star for being a patient with a good, healthy perspective?
