Living with a Urostomy: My Bladder Cancer Journey

Hey Deb. Glad to hear cancer is gone for now, but hopefully for good. Stay in the fight.

For now is the best we can hope for. My last scan was clear also. I have another one scheduled for tomorrow. Kinda nervous and anxious. Two in a row would be awesome. Take good care.

Hi Deb I have Endometrial Cancer was stage III HAD surgery, Chemo & Radiation was in remission for 8 months & it's returned. Im now in Stage IV On Lemvima & Keytruda. Pain is gone. Im hoping treatments are working. Get new Pet Scans on 7/3. Im hoping you stay in remission.

Hey Judy, I hope your PET scan is clear ! Still hoping for consistently positive news on your scans Deborah!

Good luck I’ll keep you in my prayers

Praying it stays gone!! 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻❤️

I was diagnosed with CML just 3 weeks ago. Iam not due for any appointments with my doctors till October. I am 88 and live alone.I have only read what can be in store for me,and it sounds scarier than the disease.My family are so busy I just do not get to see them often.I have noticed that people tend to push you away when you have a disease that can kill.I am so lonely now and very depressed.Any help from others in my position.What am I in store for?
