It's obviously very upsetting, and I understand why you feel so worried.

Let's look at the other side of the coin: there must have been some cancer already outside the prostate back in 2014, but it took 11 years to become detectable, still at a *very* low level. Your husband's prostate cancer seems to be a slow-moving type.

In another 11 years, he'll be 84. And 11 years after that, he'll be 95. Even if they can't eliminate the cancer, there's a good chance his medical team will be able to keep a few steps ahead of it with periodic refresher treatments while he lives out the rest of a long, wonderful natural life. That would be a win, I hope. ❤️
