@vickie1320 I don't think "scanxiety" ever goes away. The earlier in the recovery, the scarier it is. I still worry each time even though it's been 3 1/2 years. The brutality of the treatment is really fresh on your mind in those early days, plus the obvious risk of the cancer having returned, or I guess never had gone away.

The saying "don't worry about something you can't control" is absolutely accurate and logical, but it is impossible to be logical when you are dealing with cancer. Tell your husband I am hoping for the best for him.

If he ever needs someone to talk to, I can talk. Talking to someone who has experienced what he has, who he doesn't have to worry about what is said, is very useful. I know when I was post-treatment, I did not want to tell my wife my darker thoughts, because I knew that this was traumatic for her also.
