We were sure there was a leak of some kind, but the doctor couldn't find any evidence. Marie was supposed to have a topotecan injection that day in the same building. While we waited, the surgeon called the oncologist to discuss the situation. Obviously my mother in law and I could tell the doctor didn't find the leak. We decided to give it another try when he returned.
When he came back to the examining room, the doctor told us that he explained everything to the oncologist and that it would be okay to have the chemo treatment. Maries' mother tried again to tell the doctor about how much liquid was on the pillow. I asked him if it was possible that the leaked only occurred when Marie was laying down.
The surgeon backed out of the room saying that he didn't find any leak, and if there was nothing else..... Then he was gone. We sat in the examining room looking at each other. My mother in law was mad at herself for not bringing the pillow to show the doctor. I told her that we had done a good job of explaining what we had seen. And I guessed it was time to go.
Maybe when he said "Nothing is leaking now," he really meant "give me more money and I will understand suddenly what you mean". He's obviously an idiot. Didn't you know people sweat buckets out of the top of their head?
