I kept the whole ordeal very private with only a very very small number of online people who had a clue. I did mention I would be in the hospital in two holiday threads but that was about it.
I did this as I did not want to see another auction/donation thread etc pop up or some other issue that I did not wish to deal with while very sick and slightly worried.
Truth be told about two months ago I learned I had a small mass in my bladder, after they removed it and had it sent to pathology I learned I had an invasive bladder cancer. The mass itself was about the size of a ping pong ball by the way but its not what on the inside that matters its what its roots may or may not have penetrated.
My local urologist sent me to his friend who is a urologist at Stanford hospital, specially since my anatomy was so abnormal a non skilled urologist may have killed me on the or table.
They have since removed my bladder, prostate, and rerouted my kidney tubes to a stoma. After waiting for my pathology which came back very quick which is typically not good, I found out I am basically cancer free again.
