I have been posting quite a lot on the forum lately and reading as much as I can.
My husband is having a cystectomy next week. I just spoke to the doctor and he said our stay in hospital will be at least 15 days.
I have now started to panic a lot. Most of the people who have had this surgery say a stay or 7 days. I am now beginning to wonder what type of surgery it will be. I know it isn't robotics so I imagine laproscopic, is it possible that he is doing open surgery, I thought they don't do that anymore.
We live about 500km away from the hospital so it isn't something we talked about in detail with our doctor, we will be doing that Tuesday. I was actually thinking that our stay might be that long because we live so far away and the doctor doesn't want us going back and forth.
I am so scared that I am starting to believe that we won't get through this.
