The cancer is localized but...

On Monday Nov 18 I will lose my bladder and most of the urethra and prostate - (beats the alternative ). At least I won't ever be incontinent

Those that already have the "bag", say I will adapt quickly.

More after the op...

Rod,

Best wishes to you. Having a great attitude and sense of humor is a big plus in dealing with surgery and recovery.

I'll have you and Carol in my prayers.

Best wishes Rod. Stay strong

[Mildoc]

Yep, much better than the alternative!

I have seen many with the same surgery. Certainly not fun to have done, but adaptation is pretty quick with the attitude that you have.

Best of luck my friend!!!!
