Looking for advise

I am a very active 55yo. I run, Swim and golf weekly. I have non muscle invasive bladder cancer. I have had 2 removal procedures and gone through a 6 week BCG infusion. Just had another cystoscopy and there is more cancer. If I have to have my bladder removed what is the best option for recovery and being able to participate in my previous activities?
