Monday morning and we are ready for the day.  We arrived in Pretoria just before lunch and had a quick bite to eat before we go through.  After this and when Simone is home she wont be allowed to go eat out for the first Month to be safe from any Germs and Bacteria.
We arrived at Unitas Hospital and started our process. First Simone had to go in for a Scan to get ready for the radiation the following day.  Simone will be in Unitas till Thursday then she moves across to Pretoria East Netcare Hospital at Moraleto Park. She had a couple more scans to ensure her body was ready for the Treatment that was coming.
Wow what an awful day... Everything was late from the scan to her Drs appointment and even through to getting checked into her room.  We found most of the staff at Unitas extremely unhelpful and very unorganised.... The didn't have a room for Simone so we had to wait till almost 17:30 before she could get settled into the room.  She was exhausted after a long day of moving from one appointment to the next.  Simone was finally settled in her room about 18H30 and that was when Heather decided to head back to Jhb.  Not the best place


to be with the staff who don't take the correct precautions for someone who needed to be in Isolation.  It was the longest week that Simone has had to endure such awful treatment.  Lucky her Dad was with her the whole way to keep her Happy and Safe.
