Title: Thanks for the Prayers -they worked
Post by: GusRobin on March 06, 2012, 07:39:49 PM
Back in November I was diagnosed with bladder cancer. We caught it early and as I was starting BCG treatment I asked for your prayers. Had a biopsy Thursday, got the results today. Dr came in and said I had no recurrence and am considered cured. There is a 40% chance of recurrence but that means there is a 60% chance it won't. I'll go in and get scoped and a urine test every three months to monitor it.
So thanks for the prayers and well wishes.

Way to go!!! I had bladder cancer 6 yrs, ago but after chemo and them saying it was gone they took out my bladder and a lot else. In the last 6 yrs no reacurrence but the odds would have been the same if they had left everything in. Its too late now to worry about it but hoping the best of luck in the future. Piker
