Linda,

Thank you SO MUCH for posting this information, in particular the website. Newly-diagnosed, I found a wealth of info to help guide me through this. Wish I could make it to Boston, but alas.

Your post couldn't be more timely, or helpful. Thanks!!

p.s. Don't know WHAT the "rockinsuckerfish" img is all about, and I'm afraid to ask.......

Darn - it's supposed to be their logo. I'm sorry it didn't show up. (No accounting for the way some pages are named.)

Linda
This one is better, but small ..........

I did a bit more surfing around their website, and found a bladder cancer discussion board that people might wish to know about:
