A bit miffed

I am desperate for this PICC to be taken out, I have therefore spent the whole week making phonecalls trying to chase up the referral and get a date booked. Finally got somewhere yesterday and was given a pre-assessment and a procedure date for next week which then led to me bouncing round the house in a little bubble of happiness!

That lasted 10 minutes. Then I got a phone call in which they said they had already cancelled that date and re-booked me for August as I already have a PICC (which I told them first time round anyway!) so it "isn't as desperate for me to have it done". Bubble burst! I then preceded to start crying, then sobbing, down the phone explaining I was having problems with the PICC hence the desperate need for one before my next chemo, would he listen? No! He then started to treat me like an idiot, i got cross, cried more and now have to wait almost 4 weeks before I can have a port.

I seriously hope I ruined that blokes day by crying, he certainly ruined mine! I also hope he goes home and tells his wife/partner/mother that he made a 24 year old with breast cancer cry and I hope they point out how nasty he is!

Fingers crossed the person who does it is a hell of a lot nicer than him!

Rant over!

Roll on 4 weeks! Xx
