My CM has found a lump in her breast which obviously she's worried sick about and has booked herself an appointment at a private hospital for Tuesday, she's told me this, not asked if it's ok iyswim. Now I know i'd be worried to death about finding a lump but I really cannot take this time off and DH would be unpaid which we can't afford. I don't want to sound like a heartless cow but she had Friday off at short notice for an uncles funeral and now this, would it be completely awful to ask her to rebook for Wednesday ?

Melrose - well put! I don't care about her personal circumstances financially and carer/jobwise, I'm just appauled that someone could be so sensitive about such a serious topic!

Sorry, MAJOR correction - INsensitive!!

Glad the CM is ok. I think a tumour can be ruled out on a same day appointment. One thing I feel I have to point out though mainly to LT - my Mum is still very much alive and although still not (quite) kicking following her op she is still with us. I probably did over react but this thread genuinely did upset me, probably because it all happened so recently. I don't really have any comment on AC attitude - I don't think I need to. Apologise for bumping this but couldn't bear that it appeared I had implied my lovely mum was dead.

Flossam - so, so sorry - there were so many posts that I obviously was rushing to catch up so mis-read that. I'm very pleased that I mis-read that BUT my point still stands. It must have been such a stressful and upsetting/worrying time for you all!

I'm now stepping away from this thread as I've made my point, just wanted to apologise for getting that wrong.

Flossam · 08/09/2006 19:49

You didn't need to apologise LT - I wasn't upset by it - just didn't like it to look like it was the case IYSWIM. Last post on here!
