I am not 'following Protocol'...............result!

It does appear that Dr Leopoldo Burgos ( the bully, who I had the displeasure of meeting last night), was not entirely correct in his statement, that 'nobody in Spain would agree to me stopping Chemo and continuing with Herceptin and Radiology', I am delighted to say.

After the low I felt yesterday, following the meeting of Dr Leopoldo Burgos, who told me that I would die and that the NHS statistics are simply wrong ( Interesting view in itself), I feel that today was the first time I had a result. The answer I was waiting for.

My 'old' Oncologist, having met with his 'team', have agreed to me continuing on Herceptin next Wednesday for a year, without me having another Chemo session. I have to sign the above letter, confirming that I am aware of the risk and that I am officially opting out.

I will sign it with pleasure and put a lipstick kiss next to my signature.

Having contacted the German Doctor, Dr. Joachim Jaeger, who has been just wonderful in his support, this morning, to see if I would fly over in order to continue my treatment in Germany, I was equally delighted to email him with the good news.

What a difference a day makes! :-)
