Thanks for responding Pat :)I do not know what the pathology reports say? Her original one from what she told me was like the lining of her bladder had cancer cells and her firt CAT showed no spread. I don't think my Mom would be fourth coming with much info on that since she really didn't want to tell me she had cancer in the first place. I figured it out with the little bits of info she was giving me :'( The TUR and then the CAT biggest clues. Then she did finally tell me after about 3 months and she was already getting her BCG treatments. Her last BCG installment/wash was 3 or 4 weeks prior to the TUR which she had on Thurs 9/20/07. She went home today 9/22/07. I think mabe the Dr. was telling her, her bladder could only hold about a 1/3 a cup from her bladder being so swollen and irritated. In my mind I figure irritation would not be a good sign since she had the BCG treatments more than 3 weeks ago. But then again I don't really know?? My Mom is 67 and quit smoking 15 years ago. She has always been a big artifical sweetener kinda person. I don't know if that matters or not just a little info
My Mom was supposed to move back to the States to be by us, but since all of this it has kept her in Ireland.
Thanks for your feedback,
Vikki
