Hi
My husband has stage 4 prostrate cancer and we have now been told there is literally nothing that the doctors can do for him so it’s a waiting game now due to the cancer spreading to his bones and lymph nodes and his cancer is now hormone resistant. We have been living with this for 6 years and I am now in a panic, shock state of how will I cope? What’s going to happen? Etc etc etc. I am so scared and worried about the future with him and without him.
