Tuesday 1 December 2009, 11:15am appointment @ Kew Public Hospital, my monthly visit with my “Young-Gun” …Surgeon Specialist Dr Dean Rusk……………….
I had already made up my mind B4 arriving that I would take the initiative and get in first, and thats what happened. On entering the “consultation” room, I asked Dr Dean Rusk, if I could speak” he replied “Yes” and I related our discussion with Dr Manning “Head Of Nuclear Medicine” Dunedin Public Hospital.
Dr Manning had related to Myrtle & I, the results of my Full Body Scan & Xray, and that there were “no.spots” in the Neck and Chest area, however it’s not to say, there wasn’t any there !
He wanted to try another Radiation Method…………………………………..
Thats when I “turned – off” completely !!! …I realized that my Cancer had moved elsewhere, MORE, spots, MORE radiation treatments, MORE trips to Dunedin, More Hospital stays, MORE appointments !!!
I told Mr Dean Rusk………NO MORE !!!
FINITO….Kaput !….Finish !!!…….He relented and agreed that my decision was FINAL.
