SO yesterday the nurse calls "come in the doctor wants to see you".
I wasn't expecting anything good. They say wait here. It was a long wait. They seemed carried away with the face mask thing. I guess they were taking the H1N1 seriously.
The doc comes in says hello. blah blah blah. Short story they want to do radiotherapy. She says Mr Cheang concurs. BUT the affected area is close to my optic chiasm, its where the left eye crosses to the right side of the brain and vice versa for the right eye.
The cancer needs 64 greys in order to 'kill' it while the optic chiasm has a tolerance of 54. This would mean blindness. FUCK. The last time I visit I got the impression it was for one eye, now I get total blindness into the package.
Blindness is not something I look forward to.
