Gotcha gotcha!!!

And thanks Onyx, it's pretty incredible huh!!

Pandora - I totally agree with you! He's a big, stubborn guy who blocks people out if he doesn't like what they have to say. He infuriates me, I can't imagine how they feel. i just wish they would be a little open minded. I think he would feel better about listening to their advice if they listened to him a bit more yanno?

I like the idea of making everything personal...but I think thats a lot easier to do as a woman. He made things personal with the surgeon but not in a good way iykwim So a social worker...how would he go about that?
There will be social workers attached to his treatment centre - on the oncology side of things as well as on the palliative care side of things. It's just a case of ringing the hospital and asking to be put through to soemone. if he prefers to see someone who is not on the staff, a ph call to the Cancer Council should let you know what other social work resources are available in his area.
