Christmas Wish

I began treatment for locally advanced muscle invasive bladder cancer on December 15 last year.
Watching my sheep today reminds me of THE gift that secured my eternal destiny in a new creation free of disease. 
Until then my Christmas list...

Complete response to new systemic treatments (e.g. antibody drug conjugates and immunotherapy) for locally advanced muscle invasive bladder cancer and others will be shown to be durable.

AI will accelerate development and validation of better treatments.

Biomarkers will be developed for accurate patient selection for these treatments.

Molecular residual disease tests MRD (e.g circulating tumor DNA) will simplify surveillance and support prompt changes in management - including safe treatment de-escalation.

Improved overall survival prognoses with preservation of quality of life (including bladder preservation) will be the norm.

My fellow survivors will feel their Savior walking with them.

WIshing all a joyful and blessed Christmas!
