He just got the results of his biopsy a couple of weeks ago. He doesn't know what stage it is, but it's an aggressive form of bladder cancer. He starts chemo soon and if that doesn't work, they're going to take out his bladder and prostate.

Right now I'm just trying not to cry. He said it's not going to beat him because he wants to see the kids grow up.

Hugs! I am so sorry!!
I can't imagine what you are feeling, my mom is dealing with some stuff too, the thought bladder cancer but ruled that out last week. Now they think maybe kidney cancer or something with kidneys, but I have been so worried so I can't imagine what you are feeling.

I will be praying for you and your dad

It might have been prevented if he'd ever managed to stop smoking.

Yes and no. He's strong but easily beaten down and gives up on things quickly sometimes.

My sister just called and this is her worst nightmare--that we get back in touch with him and lose him.
