after a little advocacy, i was finally able to get an appointment for my 3rd reconstructive surgery consultation.
wednesday november 19th at 9:30am.
according to my oncologist and the head oncologist in south san francisco, dr. simon is great. after doc #1 in denver with the "your boobs are too small for modern science to replicate" and doc #2 in sf with the bad looking pictures and the poor bedside manner...i'm thinking dr. simon has a real chance to win me over.
This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
As an unexpected visitor.
Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they're a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.
The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in.
Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.
-Mewlana Jalaluddin Rumi 1207-1273, written in 1230
