Your moral support and kindness , as it will take time to get better again . Its a huge operation... but mu wife helped me in everyday . lots of frustration, but she got me walking right away , I was doing lops around the hospital. I spent a week in the hospital as I had a slight fever after operation , so they thought I may have had a slight infection, so I was kept there . Just as well , as I was around super caring nurses and my wife. Make sure he get plenty of pain control pills, IV . talk to operating dr's before he goes in. Be his eyes and ears for at least 6 months . Tell them to preserve Prostate for further testing down the road if required ( they do that here in Canada ) . Let me know if you need anything . Let us know how things go . When is the operation? , What is his PSA like , lesson size ? Did you have a PSMA PET before or just MRI like me ? God Bless ! James on Vancouver Island

Thanks - my husband is originally from Toronto! Had the MRI and biopsy followed by the PET scan. Surgery scheduled for Dec 24th and should be home on Christmas if all goes smoothly.
