No idea what’s coming.

Hello. My husband has just been diagnosed with small cell bladder cancer. It’s spread to the lymph nodes. 
He’s currently in hospital being treated for fungal endocarditis where he’ll be on IV antibiotics for at least 6 weeks.

I don’t even know if they’ll start treating his cancer if he still has this infection. 
This has all come as a complete shock to us and we have no idea wha lies ahead of us. I’m terrified .
