@loribmt, The snake/alligator very good analogy. I will keep that story in mind whenever I start to worry. It would be flight for me also …. 😂

I’ve been dealt with a double whammy! Last week my husband was diagnosed with Prostate cancer ( Gleason 7). Urologist said it’s on the low end of the 7. Had bone scan done on Friday, February 22. CT scan scheduled for Thursday, February 29 to make sure that it is contained within the prostate. It never rains but it pours. My worry now has turned to him!! So far we are both remaining positive. 💕

Oh gosh, @marynoelle. That’s news neither of you needed right now. This isn’t an area of treatment I’m familar with except for a number of friends (including my former boss) who have gone through prostate cancer and surgery. These 3 guys have done really well with no residual issues. So I know that there is always hope for the best with the new technologies that have been developed over the years.

We do have a lively prostrate discussion group that you may wish to visit after you find out more about your husband’s diagnosis. Reading too much now wouldn’t be helpful because many stories may not even relate to him at this time. 😉
Wishing you and your husband only good news with his upcoming CT. Will you let me know what you find out?
Sending positive thoughts and hugs your way. Lori
