    1. Hello, It is not easy. I was diagnosed last year and my cancer was invasive. The tumor was 6 cm which is pretty large. I had to have chemo and radiation at the same time. It made me feel horrible. I am still suffering from side effects. But, I guess what I want to tell you is to hang in there and try to stay as positive as you can. You will get through this. I wish only the best for you.

    2. Hi Joed,
      I’ve have been dealing with non-invasive bladder cancer, a number of tumor removals and a couple of BCG treatments over the past 3 years. I have found it very important to have a support system, someone that will listen to your concerns and even fears and provide comfort. Just stay positive and hopeful.
