My husband has been diagnosed with aggressive prostate cancer and he is refusing any kind of treatment. Surgery is not possible but radiation and hormone treatment recommend. Unfortunately he has kidney failure and receives dialysis three times a week so radiation treatment would be very difficult but is possible, but he is refusing all treatment. Hormone treatment alone could give him a possible 3 years but he doesn’t want the 3 years. He is no longer able to be on the transplant list, hates the dialysis and does not want to live. My daughter and I have had to accept his decision, after many angry discussions, but it’s so extremely hard and we just don’t know what to expect. I’m glad I found this forum and know that we are not alone in dealing with our loved ones pain, actions and decisions.
I am so sorry you have found yourself in such an unbearable position. Sending you lots of love and strength. I wish I could do more

HI Curtis
oh you're certainly not alone. This is a really supportive safe space for folk in our position. Personally I've drawn a lot of support from this group.
My own husband has a stage 4 brain tumour and after the initial 6 weeks of oral chemo/radiotherapy he refused all further treatment. As a family we have had to respect his decision but it doesn't make it any easier. Heartbreakingly he admitted to our son recently that he wishes he had never had the surgery or 6 weeks of treatment. That was hard to hear for my son and I.
He's always said its about quality of life not quantity and who am I to disagree with him?
sending you a huge virtual hug. Take it one step at a time, Breathe.
love n hugs
