Just reaching out for support from others

Hi mate , was slightly better than expected but still really bad . My kidney is huge but because of my age etc there gonna send me to guys and hopefully get my kidney and part my liver out also probably lymph nodes and sort out a vein. It wjll be done via open surgery as well so a nice big scar haha . It’s gonna be complex but it’s given me and my wife some hope . Then there will be immunotherapy as well . Now it’s just waiting on if they want to do a biopsy beforehand or straight in to surgery I guess this all depends on guys . Thanks for reaching out x

Kyle8!! 

Wow, I'm very much glass half full and I'm taking your news as positive! Yes, a big operation ahead of you (and no doubt a few bumps along the way) but certainly must be feeling a whole lot better than you were yesterday! I think your age is definitely on your side and I'll take a scar any day!!  

Keep in touch and sending love and strength to you and your wife x 

Will do I’ve sent you a request as some messages are more personal than the forum :) 

Hi Kyle8 , good to hear you are getting surgery and a plan in place. Focus on keeping yourself strong both physically and mentally. I hope you have a good support network around you, although i find myself , that I spend my time trying to protect them, or simply that they dont understand. How could they ? You are among friends on this forum that will have a plethora of experience, can offer advice and comfort. Sending you & your wife my prayers and love

Thanks for reaching out :) yes it’s tough as my wife is pregnant can’t remember if I mentioned it previously. Yes it’s nice to talk to people in similar situations. If you ever need a chat just send me a message and I’ll reply Kyle x
