Hi @Tracey2,

 

Just wanted to welcome you to the Community and check in with you.

 

Have you had any further news about your cancer staging and treatment plan?

Hi Tracey,

 I hope you can and it helps. It’s scary and frustrating having to “wait and see”

I have an appointment with the oncologist tomorrow, too. I don’t know whether I’ll start with chemo, radio or wait a bit longer, I just want to know, as well as you. Patience my friend, God is good and He will keep an eye on us.

Re: Bladder cancer

Tracey,

It’s true it is hard to wait. Having faith will help you. I haven’t had to wait that much long since I found that I have pancreatic cancer. Still waiting. But the oncologist wants to start my chemo this coming week. I keep praying, which is giving me patience, and being calm, hesitating is not good, you will be in my prayers, too. 
God is good. And going through what we are going through, we need Him to be taking care of us.

God bless you! Don’t lose hope.

❤️🙏🙏❤️
