Thanks for sharing. Being a widower, I have too much time alone to obsess over everything and no sounding board when I get in a loop.
I think this is exactly how I feel:
"We will see outcome later but i have a whole new appreciation for the horrible side effects men on ADT deal with because its the question is the cure worse than the disease?
Quality of life is me now. Quantity of life, I’ve adjusted my want."

@tbgb50 I’m not a widower, sorry for your loss, but I’m also dealing with a loss/betrayal. You may smile, I do too now.
A woman showed up on my doorstep 4 years ago after 20 years silence. Within 2 months she moved in, deeply in love with me and I fell in love again. Nursed her through a hysterectomy and stuff. Lived with me for 3 years. Last August 2025 I had a routine TURP scheduled (to help peeing) which went well.
While I was literally in the surgery theater, she spent the time packing up & moving out but waited til I got home so she could witness my reaction. I was too drugged up to care so. She left without explaining & never contacted me since. The next week I got the news I have PC. That sent me into a terrible depression & tailspin that a year later I’m surprised I feel as good as I do going into SBRT next week.
And now that I know who she is I shake my head and smile sometimes. Still can’t believe how she left. 😊
