Well my dad called the doctor back after writing down some questions doc of course happened to call and woke my dad out of a sleep - so he asked a few questions his bladder cancer is a 2possibly 3 and its high grade- fast growth- he has to go back in to weeks and get his bladder scraped again... after that is supposed to know where to go from there either chemo / or removal? - my dad said he would be getting a second opinion if it came to removal... i feel helpless

@formydad Scraping the bladder sounds painful! Your dad has a few more answers than he had, so that is good. Now to research on his own/your own, exactly what you can find out about the type and treatments. May i suggest your dad get a copy of the surgery and biopsy reports, and consider getting s second opinion now. Now need to wait until the next appointment. Knowledge is power, and in this battle, knowledge is ammunition against this mass.
