Uta’s Diary, 19th of April 2017

A week ago Peter started his BCG Treatment:

He was supposed to get the second treatment today, but it was cancelled because a ‘bug’ was found in his urine. The doctor told Peter, that it was a very unusual bug. When Peter asked him, should he be worried, the doctor said no, that ‘this unusual bug was very common’. Peter still does not know, what sort of bug it actually is. But he has to undergo now a 14 day treatment with antibiotics. So his next treatment with BCG is now scheduled for in three weeks.

Auntie, Sister. Grandmother, Great-Grandmother, Mother and Wife of German Descent I've lived in Australia since 1959 together with my husband Peter. We have four children, eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. I started blogging because I wanted to publish some of my childhood memories. I am blogging now also some of my other memories. I like to publish some photos too as well as a little bit of a diary from the present time. Occasionally I publish a story with a bit of fiction in it.

All the best, Peter. I do hope that this common uncommon bug gets knocked off by the anti biotic. 😉

  Thanks for your good wishes, Gerard. We are both on antibiotics right now. For next Tuesday we have an appointment for the skin clinic. My skin cancer has been removed. Now they want to check me out from head to toe, 🙂

Glad the very unusual bug is very common and can be dealt with!
Prayers, best wishes, and healing thoughts for Peter, and for you.
And (((HUGS))) for both of you, too!

PS…I had to see my oncologist yesterday (from having cancer surgery 18 months ago)

Now today I had to see a surgeon and I have to have a biopsy on Friday. (I blogged about it a few minutes ago)
