Biopsy Day— now with Update!

Hi Honeys we're hoooome! Yes, both of us. Bob had no nasty reactions to the anaesthesia (my big fear based on past experiences) and the docs did NOT find Jimmy Hoffa lurking in his stomach so they let me bring him home.

YEA!

Now we wait for the results. One week until we get them. Right now, this minute, that heinous amount of wait time isn't driving me to Tension Tango-ness. I'm just happy as all hell to have my Amazing Bob home with me!

And, in case you were curious, YES. Coco and Rocco were thrilled to see us so, naturally, I had to dish out the treats A cat can only take so much stress, don'cha know.

 The Amazing Bob and I will head into Mass General later this morning for his biopsy which is scheduled for this afternoon. Oni will tote us in and Jen will bring us home. Possibly she'll just be hauling my carcass back to Valhalla — they might keep TAB overnight. You know, to give him a break, a mini vaca from me and the cats. It'd be a stone mitzvah. He could finally get a decent night's rest!

At this point the medics are still telling us that this is either lymphoma or leukemia (and they're leaning toward lymphoma). OF COURSE, we're hoping the biopsy results don't bring us more hurdles to clear.

Dunno when we'll get the results. 

I'm feeling all out-of-the-loopish and at sea, what with being deaf and all. TAB and Jen talk to the lovely caregivers and then fill me in later. So far, I haven't been able to receive all the info myself, review and then ask my inevitable questions. Sucks! I'll speak with the docs today and see what can be arranged.

This isn't just me being all control freaky — TAB's stressed out enough without having to 'terp for me on top of having to process all the scary news himself. Know what else would be awesome about me getting the news straight from the MD's mouth/tippy tapping fingers? I'll know what the fuck's going on and can act as a partner in crime/healing/hospitalizing action with TAB as opposed to being a fretting observer.

Yeah, I like that — being a partner versus observer.
