Hi Catherine,

We sent some information to you in a private message, but additionally for anyone else in a similar situation, the booklet "Understanding Bladder Cancer" from Cancer Council might be helpful. It covers diagnosis and treatment for bladder cancer, including different types of surgery that may be suggested as part of treatment.

You can access the online version here or contact Cancer Council Information and Support line on 131120 to have a hard copy of the booklet sent to you by post.

You may also be interested in another Cancer Council publication, "Caring for someone with cancer", which can be very helpful when someone you love has cancer.

Take care,

Margaret
