    On train back to Wales.
    She eventually went to surgery at 3.30pm.
    :-)

    its very late in the afternoon, she must have been fed up and anxious of waiting around all day - and hungry as I expect she is not allowed food.

    My sister is due her appointment tomorrow to get her results - if all is Ok, nothing found in the lymph glands and enough tissue removed and nothing found in the margins then the next bit is radiotherapy - so really tomorrow is going to be nerve wrecking.
    And she is being very negative about it which is slightly concerning - I am thinking if the lymph glands were troublesome she would have had a call in the last week ahead of tomorrow appointment

    I don't know what the plan is if there is anything else going on, I suppose its a bit like one of those line charts and you get looped back to the very start all over again ...

    That is fantastic, did you have to call her with the news or did she find out online?

    She can't believe it she passed all 14 stations, yes I would like to give her a hug. She is on placement at the moment as they are 8 hours behind. She managed to look online and then wanted to let us know so text and slipped out to call. She couldn't find anyone to ask but I am sure in the circumstances noone will mind. :D

    Massive relief, hopefully normal service will be resumed by me. :o It;s been an emotional rollercoaster. :o
