Nurses

We have had a number of nurses come to the house. My husband is very ill with prostate cancer. If any of you men are reading this, please get your PSA test by the time you are 50. My husband is 83 and he has a very rare form that is untreatable. It has gone into the muscles and is very quick to kill you.

Good News

My husband got good news today. His PSA has gone up but he doesn't have to do anything until he sees his doctor in October. At that time, they will probably start him on hormone theraphy. That consists of putting a pellet under the skin in the stomach area. It is time releasing and I guess you can get them to last 3 months, 6 months, or even a year. I would think it would be great to have one once a year and not have to think about it again for that length of time. We will see in October what the doctor thinks is the right one for him.
