Prostate Cancer Diagnosis

At the end of August my husband received a Ca prostate diagnosis. Fortunately he's been told it's fully treatable as its contained & a less aggressive form. He's had his oncologist appt yesterday & now has the urologist appt before he decides which treatment. It was nice for the oncologist to refer to his age as 'relatively young' when considering treatment options. He 72!

Sounds like you're in good hands. I have a friend who had a similar diagnosis who is doing absolutely fine. Have faith.

Thank you. Everyone we've spoken to praises the service he's under. He's thinking of having brachytherapy, a newer treatment possibly available to him due to his cancer situation. And yes, our faith is of great importance & help.
