  • Hi Robbie and welcome to the Cancer Chat forum.

    I'm sorry about the accidents your dad is having at the moment but I hope it helps to know that urine leakage after a catheter removal is quite common. You can find out more just here but if you'd like to have a chat with one of our cancer nurses about this they're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    Hopefully some of our members will share their experiences and advice with you soon as well.

    Kind regards,
