I told W about the scheduled time for the biopsy (that is a scary word, isn't it!) Friday evening, kit was kinds of late, and she had to work Saturday, so that was about the extent of the discussion. So, Saturday evening she asked if I could drive to and from the test. I said that I don't know for sure, I have read both on the web. She checks, and she doesn't work that day, BUT, her brother is going to be here. I say, ok, I'll ask if S18 can help me out. Oh, but he doesn't get to see her brother much either, why don't you reschedule for the next week? BECAUSE I WANT TO GET IT DONE, I WANT TO KNOW! (No, I didn't yell, I did say I wanted it done.) I told her I would figure something out. I am not rescheduling. I call a cab if I have to. I know in my head that a few days isn't important, but that just isn't the point, to me.
I am sorry for the poor reaction from your W. Jeff, sit down with her again, tell her how you feel, tell her this is important, tell her you could use her support emotionally during this even if she can't be with you physically (which she could and should be!). Don't let this be something that she pushes under the rug and you resent her for doing that and yourself for allowing it. (((Jeff)))
Live your life while you are still living. Riding the trail less traveled.
I'm sorry she responded that way aswell- I'm tempted to come to Tucson and drive you there myself.
I don't think you've lost your perspective at all. This is not something trivial- you need to get it done and she *should* have you as a priority and be supporting you. I agree with WCW- tell her how you feel and that you could use her support. It's not OK for her to try and prevent you asking S18 either, or to try and get it pushed back. NOT OK.
Oooooh, I am annoyed.
((((Jeff))))
Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart. And you'll never walk alone.
