Angela's experience with bladder cancer - 5 Women, 5 Experiences

1 in 4 bladder cancer patients are women. We help to tell their personal stories. Meet Angela.
In the third video of the series “5 Women, 5 Experiences,” we meet Angela, a 42-year-old from Niverville, Canada who shares her journey with bladder cancer. Diagnosed in 2020 after her symptoms were initially mistaken for a UTI, Angela's bladder cancer journey included multiple TURBTs and BCG treatments, progressing to muscle-invasive cancer. Following chemotherapy and a radical cystectomy, Angela now embraces life with her urostomy bag, 'Peeatrice,' symbolising her strength and resilience.
Our video series follows five women in five different corners of the world who share their very personal experiences with bladder cancer. Their individual stories highlight the wider challenges women face with bladder cancer whilst challenging the feeling of isolation by connecting the community and showing women affected by bladder cancer that they are not alone.
