So sorry to hear that you are joining our group! Not that you aren't welcome, of course.
From your report, I assume that you haven't had a TURB (transurethral resection of the bladder...ie, biopsy) yet? You really won't know exactly what the situation is until this is done and you have the pathologist's report. MD Anderson is an excellent choice, BTW.
There is not much point in discussing the situation until you have the final diagnosis, because things can be different than they seem now. Once you know for sure that you have bladder cancer, and what its stage and grade is, then you can make those decisions. Your family and your children can be a great support system for you. And if they are NOT well informed, they may not trust you again!
I have a dear friend whose kids (grown adults) never tell her any of their health issues "because we don't want you to worry." So, she worries all the time and is never sure that they are telling her the truth! Likewise, she won't tell them anything because "she doesn't want to worry them." Need I tell you the result of all of this dithering around? It is a deeply personal issue, and one that you must be comfortable with, but I would urge you to think seriously about it.
Bladder cancer CAN be treated. You will read about many others on this Forum who are leading very full lives after their diagnoses. I wish you the very best of luck.
