I've been a 'no-show' at these Forums, and Ladies, I've missed you all.

In early January we discovered that my husband has early stage prostate cancer. Since the diagnosis we've been researching all possible types of treatments, and have had a number of physician consultations. It has been a stressful few months. I set myself the task to discover all I could learn, concerning this cancer, and which treatment course would be best, for my husband. We believe we have settled on a treatment that gives my husband a good chance for a cure.

I wanted you all to know, I enjoy participating here, with this group of wonderful women, and will hope to have the opportunity to do so again, very soon.

I'm so sorry to hear this. What a wise thing to do...deciding after researching, which treatment would be best. You both will be in my thoughts.

Hi, Jeannine: I am so sorry to read of your husband's bout with prostate cancer but, at the same time, relieved that it had been diagnosed at an early stage. Lots of thoughts and prayers for you and hubby.

Hi Jeannine. Sorry to hear about this - but I'm glad you caught it early. That means chances of beating it are better. Keep us posted, and in the meantime, y'all are in my prayers.

Catching prostate cancer early is a really good thing. My uncle and a friend caught it early. They both had surgery and are considered cured and living full lives now.

I read something once that stuck with me: More men die WITH prostate cancer than FROM prostate cancer. (It's a very treatable and slow growing cancer that is not nearly as life threatening as so many others)

Best of luck to you both. Please keep us posted.
Kathy
