    Roger and Sandra I am so sorry. My best friend died of prostate cancer last Friday and I too am struggling. However I have found help accepting the grief as a process of adjustment that has to take place.  Please access support to help you not feel overwhelmed

    Sandra and Roger,

    Very sorry for your loss. I love the name Matthew, my son was called Matthew too. Recently lost both parents to cancer, and I am amazed at how much they loved us kids and how much they did for us. I am so grateful for that. I just hope that how much you loved your son, and him you, brings you some strength and comfort at this difficult time.
