Thank you everyone! It is very scary and medical knowledge is not always a good thing – not for anxiety levels. She will be getting an ileal conduit. Does everyone lose a significant amount of weight? I have only worked in ICU and recovery so have only seen patients immediately post op.
Greg you are right. We are caught between a rock and a hard place for sure 🙁 I just hope I am making the right decision for her. I am losing a lot of sleep over this decision.
