I have been home from the hospital for about two weeks. Still adjusting to being an urostomate. I'm 54.Bladder cancer. They removed the bladder. I go back in 6 months for checkup.

OstoMike ... Welcome to VO!! We do have members here that are urostomates, maybe you'll meet them along the way.  For replies to your specific need when & if you have questions or need tips be sure  & identify your ostomy type it will help you get the replies you need sooner.   If you haven't, try going for a short walk each day to help build up strength & energy.  Surgery can take a lot out of a person. 

All the best of health! 

Linda
