Another Visitor

Dr. Mortimer from the Oncology department came to visit us just before discharge.  She happily repeated Dr. Chen’s news about the biopsy returning cancer-free.  Her concern was the condition of Satomi’s bones. 

She talked of the extent of Satomi’s spinal damage at her young age.  Her tone and body language seemed to question the steroids and chemo as the cause.

The doctor again recommended the Zometa (which we already took) but didn’t have a clear recommendation for more chemo.
