Hello to everyone on here im new to this ,I've only one kidney working and have just been diagnosed with cancer ,and awaiting an operation for the half kidney to be cut away .and hopefully when they put the half back it will work .i will have to travel to Oxford for the operation ,im waiting to here from them .I'm having a hard time to come to terms with it some days I'm ok ,others I just cry like the tap has been turned on .I'm just wondering if anyone els has gone through the same one .my husband doesn't seem to be coping well ,i worry about him and my children .but every doctor and nurse I've met have been so nice and kind .I've also been to a dialysis clinic to see all options, just in case .
