How to cope with surgery fears just days before the procedure?

Hello Margaret, I too have bladder cancer. I was diagnosed October 1 of 2025 as I was preparing for my first Turbt I fell and broke my right wrist and my right femur so that delayed things for a month or so I have had two of the (Turbts)whatever they call it Now I am waiting to be scheduled for the BCG treatments once a week for six weeks. I am a 87 yr old female. I will pray for you, Margaret, You are not alone.

Consider reaching out to your medical team about your concerns - they can often provide reassurance and help you understand what to expect, which may ease some of the worry you're experiencing right now.
