Default Yahoo!!! Great news finally

After more tests, and more waiting the final word is my BILs cancer is contained in the bladder! It hasn't spread and after 3 series of treatments they will retest to make sure the cancer is gone before removing the bladder. It has been an extremely long 2 weeks. Test after test after test. Treatment starts tomorrow. Finally.

Keep us posted, and lets hope for the best outcome possible!
