The doctor visit was perplexing. I know Fuster is one of the best at what he does or at least one of the most recognized in his field, but according to hubby he is not the most talkative guy. I know a lot of people don't care about chitchatting with their physician. I know technical skills are supposed to be more important than social skills in this kind of setting yet I personally stay away from people who don't communicate. I don't like them, I don't trust them. They make me nervous and the last thing one needs is a doctor who makes you nervous. Fortunately J.P. does not seem to care that much. Although he did not find Fuster's personality exactly expansive, he did not find him rude either, just quiet. J.P. had some test done and is getting more tests done this morning (he is back at the hospital right now getting a heart PET scan). In a few weeks Fuster will call him with the results and hopefully some encouraging news regarding the possibilty of stopping or slowing down the disease. Yesterday I came upon a story about growing arteries out of a few cells that is very promising for somebody like J.P. whose next chance would otherwise be a heart transplant.
