next day

Waiting for an elderly patient to undress.She is not much older than me but morbidly obese with spinal problems.It is nearly ten years since her last Pap smear.Her reports suggest cervical cancer.I will take biopsies today and wait for results.
After examination: it looks like a cancer and she has been told that is likely .Her husband has just retired.They were hoping to travel,but will have to wait until this is resolved.As usual I feel guilty.
