hello guys hope your all doing as well as can be excepted .I’ve had a date for my cystectomy wed 10th April to say im a bit scared is an understatement . Ive cleaned my house from top to bottom tryIng to keep busy and not to think about what if’s but im afraid its not working Unamused ive got to have a stoma as they couldnt offer me a neo bladder as the Cancer is in the urethra . Im glad they are moving fast as i dont want the cancer to spread but i feel as if i havent got over my last op yet . I also learned yesterday that when i went in on the 14 feb they only took enough for a biopsy and left the tumours there not sure why

  • Hello Super girl

    Life has a habit of kicking us when we're down and your news made me feel very sad for you. You and your sister need lots of treats be that walks near water, cake, wine or whatever you really enjoy together. Go and do those things.

    Have a big e-hug from a crusty old bloke.

    I may appear to be listening but in my head I'm all at sea. 

  • Hi Supergirl, so sorry to hear about your sister, life is so cruel. 

    I really wish you well with your op coming up and just remember there are lots of us on here to offer advice when you need it. All the best x

  • What a horrid situation for both you & your sister. You definitely deserve some pampering. Post op though, you must put yourself first for a while, to get fit & well again as soon as you can. Hope all goes well.
