Devastated news that my darling husband  not only has kidney cancer spread to the lungs but there s also a bladder tumor. Consultant gave  12 months prognosis for survival. We still don't know what cancer it is as biopsy hasn't been carried out yet.  Tumor in bladder will be removed this week and then sent for tests with lung biopsies. Its' been a living hell for 2 months. We thought stage 3 but we're shocked at the news that it was stage 4...

  • Hi  and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.

    I'm sorry to read that your husband has just been diagnosed with kidney cancer which has spread to his lungs and bladder. This must have come as a tremendous shock to you, especially as you've only just discovered that you have breast cancer.

    It would be great if you could pop something about both your husband's and your diagnoses and treatments so far into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'.
