Delay

I was supposed to start proton treatment today, but the radiation oncologist called yesterday afternoon and said that the scan I had that morning showed so much growth of the tumor that the treatment plan has to be redone. So I won't be able to start until Thursday. In other words, because I really need the treatment, the treatment is delayed. It's a bit hard to wait. It's also frustrating to reflect that if the insurance approval had gone through the first time, the cancer wouldn't have had so much time to grow.

Meanwhile, little Proton is a source of joy. The other cats—Artemis and Hekla—are still not comfortable with him in the house, but we're taking introductions slowly and hopefully it will work out in the end.
