NERVOUS times again... Back to the hospital

Wishing you the best of love & luck!!❤

A lot of doctors do care, but Tom is right. For most you are just a number on a chart. I guess they have to distance themselves or they would go crazy worrying about each and every patient. Prayers to you and your family..

Tack för att ni delar med er! Håller alla tummar & tår 💛 Kan tänka mig att museum kanske kostar om de är privatägda? 😅

You are such a fun loving family sending as always a ton of positive vibes & a continuous flow of healing reiki energy to Malin.... Praying you get your results really soon & that that you get the all clear...there’s nothing worse than waiting for the phone to ring...❤

I understand how you feel🤍💜🤍 I had the impression that the health care system in Sweden is one of the best in the world but now I know I was wrong. Holding you in my heart🌸 sending you love💌and light🌟wishing you the best🫂 A friend from Greece🌏

[@malinandtom]

Yeah a lot of people say that and I think that when you’re actually being treated it’s quite good. But before you get to a specialist and after you’re out of the “danger zone” you’re kinda lost in the system again 🌸

[@smt8486]

Ahh I love your openness about how you're feeling. I'm sure it will help many people who can relate. I've still have anxiety about going to the Dr.s after having a spell off work. So can't imagine how you're feeling with all you've been through. And I do hope you get positive feedback today and they can help you. Xxx

[@malinandtom]

We think it’s important to talk openly whenever we can, we hope it helps people to understand these anxieties are normal 🧡 thank you!

Scanxiety is a real thing. My first husband was a cancer patient. Every three months he would have CAT scans. I would try not to think about it after the scan and results but the week leading up to the scan it was so horrible. Unfortunately his cancer returned and this time he was terminal ( liver metastasis) nearly 40 years on and I remember the anxiety. I'm sending good vibes your way. Positive thoughts only. ❤❤

[@JoFilippas]

Museums used to be free, at least the ones the state owned (private ones chose for themselves) but that was removed a couple of years ago when the state lowered the culture budget. Maybe Norrköping municipality has decided to keep them for free?

[@malinandtom]

Interesting! Possibly, there’s definitely a few in Norrköping that are still free.

[@marilynroberts6644]

Sending love and prayers that you receive good news as far as the scans and your stomach pain. It's so unfair and sad to keep a person waiting in cases like yours and my heart goes out to you and Tom and the kids. Just a side note, you certainly looked handsome in the leather jacket Tom. !

Oh I’m so sorry to hear you’re also going through this. The long wait is the worst, so many scenarios going through your head all the time. Wishing for good results for you 🫶🏼

[@nancyhill6184]

I would think the length of time for scan results would be all the better. If they saw something they surly would have called sooner.

[@malinandtom]

Yeah that’s one way we’ve been thinking but then because we’ve called and they kept saying nobody seen the results yet you also don’t know! 🫶🏼

Museums in Germany usually have one day a week where they have free admission, which is important I think.

It’s a waiting game~

[@WVislandia]

I do think doctors are so wrapped up in their own part of the job that they don't stop to consider patients. I know I felt like the hospital was so in the wrong that time they kept you waiting and waiting for Malin's bloodwork and then Charlie, I guess, really put his own hopeful interpretation on things and couldn't accept that Malin needed to stay for the bloodwork but not necessarily to stay the night away from Charlie and Bella and Tom. I don't know the answer but I sometimes think - you have a right to be able to say to your doctors, 'do you realise that you've been placing me under extreme stress when in fact you could have told me the results sooner and you could have believed me when I said that I had this pain sooner?' Because if no one says that to them, they definitely won't deal with it - they still might not deal with it even if you say something, but at least you will have spelled out the facts for them.

[@WVislandia]

I can give an example of what I mean, if you like. I had three operations as they tried to determine whether I had ductal cancer. For the second operation, they stuck me at the end of the day as they hadn't been able to contact me to ask and I accepted that but when I was in recovery after, it was like - no bed, no food left - because I was the last patient. When they said that they needed to do a third operation to keep checking all the margins, I said, 'don't put me last'. What did they do? Put me last. Because I live alone, I am required to spend the night after surgery in hospital so they thought they'd take other patients who could go home sooner. But again - no bed, no food and after I had said, 'don't put me last'. So when I had to have another operation, I wrote the hospital and said, 'are you going to keep discriminating against me because I live alone? It isn't my fault that you have this rule and I don't want you to keep punishing me just because I live alone.' And you know? The doctor who spoke with me about scheduling the operation dealt with my complaint - I really don't think they had thought out the repercussions, they just picked a method and tried to force me into it and they hadn't thought - 'this person has already been last once before, she shouldn't be made last again' and the doctor even said, 'if a patient doesn't tell us this, we wouldn't know.' So while I realise they are thinking hard about their patients, they may not always consider from the patient's viewpoint - so I think Malin has more than a right to say, 'please don't put me under unnecessary stress by keeping results from me, no matter if it is holiday or anything - I am a human being and I have concerns for myself and for my family.'

[@malinandtom]

Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us. I’m so sorry you’ve been through all of this and that nobody listened to you the first times you spoke up. We’ve told everyone everything we’ve been feeling all the way through, the difficult thing is that it’s different people through the summer and not the nurses/doctors we normally deal with. I’ve told everyone I spoke to but it doesn’t really seem to help. We’ve also put in reports about all different kind of things that we’ve been through, so we’ve done it all to hope that it gets better, not just for us but for everyone, in the future 🫶🏼

Nothing is free in America

[@karlaharvey2623]

Oh NO, don’t do this to us 😢. I know how you both feel. When a specialist does this kind of ( uncaring ) I do not hesitate to let them know what they’ve put myself and family thru. We have to Advocate for ourselves as the healthcare system sure won’t. I am so sorry that they have not contacted you in regards to you Scan Results. Do you not have an app that you can download with the hospital ( my patient portal) so you can see the results of all test that you’ve had done? Which sometimes isn’t a good thing. Shame on them for leaving y’all hanging. Now we have to wait a wk to hear what they are going to do about your intense abd. Pain and scan results, which I am believing that everything is negative in your scan and gonna be positive in that they are going to do abdominal ultrasound and MRI etc to find out what is really causing these horrific cycles of abd. Pain. You in my thoughts and prayers

[@malinandtom]

Oh I know I was so ready to let them know how I’d been feeling, practiced my speech all the way there to make sure how unfair it is! But then the doctor was so incredibly nice I felt bad because it’s not his fault haha, so we did say it’s unfair and that it’s hard for the whole family and not just me. And yes I can see my journal online but I can’t see it until a doctor signs it off and they don’t do that until they’ve spoken to the patient. Thank you for always sending us your love on everything we do, sorry that we don’t always get a chance to respond! 🫶🏼🫶🏼

[@lyric8006]

Just an idea….instead of worrying for days about the scan results, why not call and ask for the results as soon as you think they are ready? That way you are not spending precious time worrying about the worst happening. Wishing you the best in all your medical appointments & scans❣️

[@malinandtom]

Thanks but we’ve tried to ring 3 different times and we only get the answer “we’ll ring you when we know” and then we don’t hear anything again. So thanks for the idea but I promise you, we’ve tried everything we can to get the results faster 😊
