Patient Stories
Helena Moscato

After an Advanced-Stage Diagnosis, FCS Patient is Grateful to Have Her Life Back

For two years, Helena Moscato searched for answers when she began experiencing frequent urination and UTIs. After receiving a biopsy, she learned she had advanced-stage bladder cancer and began to receive care from FCS medical oncologist/hematologist Ana Van Der Wall, MD.

When her daughter Rachele learned of her mother’s diagnosis, she moved up her wedding date so her mom could be there. Dr. Van Der Wall safely adjusted her treatment schedule to allow Helena to enjoy the day and be present without any side effects of her treatment.

While Helena’s disease will never go away, she’s comfortably managing her disease and feels like she has her life back.
