It has been a few days since I was checked again for my ongoing bladder cancer. I have dealt with it since the summer of 2021, and I happy to report I am FINALLY remission.
I must continue to be tested every three months until 2030. Provided no recurrence is found, it will be safe to say that the cancer is gone.
I have dealt with chemo, Keyruda, BCG treatment and chemo, again, to no avail. Until I was finally treated with gene therapy in October, 2025.
I will get my next quarterly treatment of Adstiladrin on December 4, and will continue that treatment quarterly for another eighteen months thereafter.
Coincidently, the last view and bloodwork of cancer was in May, 2025. Since then, enough time has elapsed for my urologist and my oncologist feel confident to say “remission” has arrived.
Part of my treatment has also been to maintain a positive attitude, a good sense of humor and having a strong support system around. For that, I am grateful and I thank the Good Lord for blessing me all these graces.
And I thank all of you for your prayers and good wishes during this journey.
