After almost a 6 year battle with this beast My husband died on Mother’s Day. He fought so bravely and died in hospice care. He was so loved by his children , grandchildren and friends. Hopefully someday they will find a cure. Thank you to all of you for all your help and support.

His suffering is over. Most accurate description of the pain of the loss of the life partner:

It will hurt a lot for a little while and a little for a long time.

You and your family are in my heart and prayers tonight.

This breaks my heart. You have been so supportive of your husband, and of me as well, as you shared your experiences with being among the first to receive Pluvicto. Prayers for you and your family.

There have been so many advances in these 6 years that he was able to benefit from. I too hope there is a cure in our kids’ lifetime.

I'm so very sorry. My husband died at Christmas so I know about holiday reminders. I hope with time you will look at the date as a day of remembrance instead of just pain.

We have a prostate widow group on Facebook. If you are interested in a link, let me know. Nice group of women and sometimes the only people you can talk to about the should-have-dones and medical PTSD (seemingly universal) are other widows.

Wishing you strength and peace in coming days. 🤍🤍🤍

Sorry about it, take care. We are still not out of grief of my father demise more than a year ago especially my mother as they would have been celebrating 40th marriage anniversary last year just a week ago when we lost him. I just wished there would have been better awareness of prostate cancer especially when he showed his prostate problem on time and then he had to suffer from cemo from blood cancer developed from the side effect of prostate cancer radiation therapy. That was very bad. Keeping in mind the karma theory which my religion believes, he did so much good karma in this life and still he got brain infection from chemo and was unable to move or speak but can see and feel. That's pathetic I am still unable to understand why all this happened why,I really wish you all the strength and may his soul rest in peace but I really hate this C word in my life

Sorrow to hear of another warrior falling from the line! The line we all hold in lockstep, arm in arm, bravely facing our foe! When one falls, the entire line feels it, knows it has happened, as we all must shuffle a step closer to those left standing, to fill the gap.

Like a pebble thrown into a calm and still morning pond, the ripple goes out in all directions.

Please accept my most heartfelt sorrow and condolences to you and your family for your loss.

Cynthgob,

My sincere sympathies to you and your family on the loss of your husband.

The bond of family, the caring company of friends and guidance of clergy can be helpful and-----sometimes not! At times we need to be alone to grieve and to reflect about the loss of a loved one.

We never heal, we never get over a significant loss. In time, we learn to accept the loss. I would not have, not shared my life with some loved ones. to have avoided experiencing the pain of separation that death brings. It takes time. Find peace. Be at peace.

Sincerely,

Currumpaw

I didn’t know your husband so I’ll speak for me. If I were your husband and your dad I’d tell you that you mourned me while you walked with me down this path all the way. Please give me peace and mourn me no more. Get about your lives now and reclaim your joy and be very very happy. There is no more to be done. For me if you shoulder another moment of despair about me you break my heart. I didn’t know him but you did. Would he think like me?

So sorry. The lion’s share of us are in the same boat. I am approaching six years since diagnosis and recognize my time will be coming. We are traveling with intention while I am able, walking 1-2 miles most days and eating 1-2 salads a day. Yet, I feel it inside—including being worn down by the cumulative collateral damage of the robust treatments. Still in the game presently, subject to change. Take care.

Cynth, your husband's memory should be for a blessing. I just came to your post here late and you may never see my reply. I had noticed that you had replied to my own post about PSA testing and that scandal. I was very sad to read that your husband had passed away. And I note that he passed away from heart failure. Apparently up to 30% of metastatic prostate cancer deaths are related to heart attack and similar things. There's a fair amount of discussion about cardiovascular health on this forum usually in the context of exercise. So I noticed this in your bio update.
