Journal Entry for October 19, 2009 Mood
Monday, October 19, 2009 | A Sad story
Last week, my husband was diagnosed with prostate cancer.  The doctor said it is in the early stages, so he has to go see him Friday to find out what treatment options he has.  Please say a prayer that they catch all the cancer.

    That is terrible although treating prostrate cancer now is much easier then it used to be, one of the guys in town has had it for about ten years now and most of his treatments are through pills.
    Your husband has alzheimers too doesn't he? So you may also want to try to balance what benefits treating the cancer has over what it may do to his alzheimers which often get's much worse after things like surgeries, not sure why that is so but have seen it so many times.
    I will keep you both in my thoughts and prayers and hopefully you'll find time to keep us posted on how you are both doing. Hugs and loves, Georgia

    You are your family are in my prayers. Take care of yourself however you can. Ask for help, especially during the crazy-busy time of the year.
