    Pat,

    I don’t like saying it but sometimes I honest think it’s a crap shoot. I couldn’t get an agreement if mine was T2 or T3…all I know for sure is that when I first saw the tumor on the monitor I was frightened and wanted that nasty looking thing out of me as soon as they could get to it. A few days after my RC when my surgeon bounced into my room to tell me all labs were good, I called him back to ask him what condition the bladder was actually in after having it out for examination. I was just hoping I didn’t have it yanked out without a good reason. I wanted confirmation I had made the right choice. Based on what he told me, I did. Then of course, I had to wonder if I had made the right choice of a diversion and of course, as time moved on, I found I had. I feel lucky and blessed.
