    Hi Alison. I am in a similar situation having recently been told that the BCG didn't work. I have 2 types of high grade cancer and have decided to go for bladder removal to try and catch it before it spreads. I've asked my Macmillan nurse to put me in touch with people who have a urostomy bag...

    Hi Jon Yeah, it has been a really good week.....getting the all clear, daughter getting her own place and my 2 stepsons getting jobs........
