How do you keep from going insane during the treatment of a loved-one when every doctor expresses every theory and worry along the way.
In the last two months of my fathers treatment we have heard a surgeon express her worry that the cancer had spread to the lungs (turned out to be allergies that caused my father to cough ... ), a doctor express his worry that the cancer had spread to the brain (turned out to be an electrolyte imbalance coupled with two undetected mini-strokes that were causing my father to hallucinate ... ), and a doctor saying the indigestion and abdominal pain might be cause by the colon cancer growing rapidly ( ... when in fact it was caused by the cancer shrinking dramatically and sending the Stent to be expelled ...).
How do you learn to NOT listen?!?
