This was a really good topic. Cancer is such a devastating disease. My husband had stage 1A lung cancer 2 years ago. He had half of his left lung removed and so far he has been doing fine. We changed doctors and he did alot of lab work. His PSA came back at 6.1. I thought it must of been some kind of lab error and it was repeated and came back 4.6. His urologist wanted to do a biopsy. I thought we just went through lung cancer this possibly can't be cancer again. He had a 25% of it being cancer. The biopsy showed adencarcinoma in 9 of 12 cores. It truly is shocking to hear the news "It is cancer." It is like a feeling that is indescriable. We decided if we got through lung cancer we could get through this. He had robotic radical prostatectomy last Monday and is having a slow recovery. We will get pathology report this Friday. My husband and I look at this as a journey through life. Cancer definitely changes your life. We now cherish everyday we are together and it has brought us closer than I have ever imagined. We have also met some truly caring and amazing doctors along the way. We are hoping for alot more happy years together.

Welcome Cupcake,

Sorry you needed to find us, but glad you did. Glad to hear your husband is on the recovery side of his prostate surgery.

Please keep us posted, and feel free to ask as many questions as you may have.

Good luck to the two of you.
