I, myself, am surprised that I feel nothing except the usual empathy one has for a fellow creature that is suffering. There is no feeling there of the potential loss of a mate.
Body scan scheduled
One of the many doctors calls me at night to tell me they will do a body scan overnight to look for masses. She said this doesnt necessarily mean cancer - there could be a non-cancerous mass. I know, though, what she really means. I can call in the morning.
I do call early and find the scan showed nothign and he had to get blood transfusions last nite. Some blood number had fallen too low. I talk to him and he actually makes sense.
And so they begin the search for what is wrong with him.
