A Cancer...?

No reason to get all upset, no desire for worry or words of strength, lets just treat it as just another of life's minor problems...


Poem Artwork

A bladder lesion found,
Infinitesimal but around,
If indeed its cancer,
So what, I won’t be any more a dancer…

Tests ordered,
Appointments made,
Under again the blade,
On the outskirts of the bladder,
Basically I guess along the border…

Let’s see if again I do escape the bullet,
If God does allow me to continue living,
So that I can herein continue giving,
Or will the doctors have to of it, pull it…?

Ed, I read all the comments below, and you do have a number of people who will be calling upon the healing power of our Lord and Savior on your behalf, and I shall be praying for you as well.

It seems the others are overreacting a bit. Looks like the doctors caught "a lesion" while it can be treated quickly and easily.

If it's any consolation, a recent ultrasound of my bladder and kidneys showed that I have a cyst in one of my kidneys that is long-standing and unchanged as well as a swelling on one side of one kidney that is new. I have a urodynamic study of my bladder on Wednesday that will tell them more. I'm not worried although my grandmother had a large tumor on her kidney and my cousin recently learned that she has a tumor in her kidney--both cancerous.

Prayers never stopped cancer, only action. You've got the right attitude. Let the doctors do their thing.

I admire your courage. At least you can be poetic about it. My most sincere wishes that you have a speedy recovery and/or whatever it is they see is benign. John

I have many friends who have survived this and more.
Thankfully surgery results are much better than before.
I pray that all goes much better than was planned
One day they will have a complete cure; won't that be grand!
Amen

Ed... Mine was inside & 1st sugery got screwed up because

Not anesthetized enough. Leg jerked & Dr
Perforated bladder 5/7/2014.
Had to wear bag for 13 days for hole to heal itself.
This caused repeated UTI 's which required antibiotics,
Which caused diarrhea, which caused hemorhoids.
& then required Probiotics & Peparation H.

Most miserable time of my life!

2nd surgery was 8/4/2014. Stuck in hospital about 10 hrs for some unknown reason.
Was supposed to be Out pat 4-5 hrs.
But so far, so good, 2 yrs later.

Hope ur results are good news!

I was very fortunate I gave up smoking in my 50's It was better late than never and an operation removed a small tumor that was cancerous but the doctor searched all around and removed anything that didn't look right. Thank God he did a great job and I never had any more problems.
Hope all goes well with you and they find nothing serious with your bladder.
You are in my prayers.
