As rare as that is, I want to learn more about what the future might hold.Any personal stories are welcome.thanks,Elizabeth elikapeka Sat, 26 Apr 2008 00:00:00 GMT Hi Elizabeth,My Husband,David had a kidney removed last december..we were told all the cancer was removed, however then they found some "abnormal cells" in his bladder, he underwent 6 treatments of immuno therapy..he goes in for another biopsy next week and a CAT scan after that.(biopsy taken in March was clean.)  So we await the next results, so I too am interested in re-occurance. We will see oncologist after scan to plan for possible"preventative chemo" I wish you and your husband all the good luck...Sandy   WOLFLADY1020 Thu, 22 May 2008 00:00:00 GMT Hi Sandy,My husband goes in soon for his first exam since the surgery and the good news.
