Dear Neelloo2626,
I have recently been diagnosed as a T1, High Grade, bladder cancer patient after my TURBT. I am sorry to hear about your dad's diagnosis. I believe it's similar to my diagnosis.
Sara Anne is right on point. She said to me that my diagnosis was not the best, but it was also not the worst. The good thing was none of my cancer invaded the muscle layer and the cancer seems to be superficial. The bad thing was that the cancer was extensive throughout my bladder.
I am now looking at another TURBT procedure and a series of BCG intravesical Immunotherapies throughout a couple of years. These procedures will hopefully eradicate the cancer cells.
The only other option would be to have a R/C, I believe.
At first when I found out about this bladder cancer thing I was stunned and afraid. I am still afraid. But I am trying my best to see the positive side of my situation. The mitomycin-C and BCG treatments will give me an opportunity eradicate the bladdder cancer, as well as the R/C if it comes to that.
I would do the treatments two times over and do a back flip if it gives me one more day with my lovely wife.
My best, Lee
