just diagnosed with Bladder Cancer and Lymph Nodes are cancerous also

Hi , I am so sorry to hear how hard things have been both physically and mentally. I understand how lonely it can be, especially after losing your wife. I'm glad you have good family and friends around, have you been able to show them the less positive side of you? Having that openness could help allow them to provide you some extra support. You mentioned external struggles. Could you explain some more I will absolutely try my best to help!

Hi Linda thank yo for reaching out. I am just recovering from my third treatment. I have chemo on Monday and Tuesday every other week and by Friday thru Monday is really tough. Today i am feeling better. I have a Pet Scan this Friday to see if it is working and then the Dr will decide if i need the next 3 rounds or possibly have surgery. Prayers are that it is working.
The worst is no tastes. I am a retired chef and a partner in a non-dairy ice cream co. and I do all of the R&D. Ha Ha.
God Bless and great to hear from you.
