Hello Everyone,
I am aware that I did not post for a while, since we come back from holiday we both feel so well that I really cut cancer from my thoughts. However, I also feel strongly in debt to this beautiful community so I though I will post an update to encourage everyone especially the scientist among you like AH and the new people who recently diagnosed and are in the dark place at the moment.
We had seen today Jacob oncologist which is moving to research of PC and Immunotherapy. He said that although Immunotherapy helps patients with other cancers it does not work for our PC. Jacob oncologist is amazing so just that you all know that this wonderful doctor is on our side and that the cure / treatments for PC is forever under new developments.
I would like to say thank you for everyone here who help us in the last year and I know that one day I will go to regular postings again and visits of this community. Just now I am enjoying normal life with almost no 2nd thought to this PC bastard.
Lots of love
Dafna
I am glad to hear that you are both doing so well and can understand you wanting to enjoy life and put the prostate cancer on the back burner for now. You have given so much time and encouragement to others on the forum and I for one am very grateful to you. Just keep in touch with us and reassure us that you are both ok every so often.
As far as immunotherapy goes, it can be effective for some type of prostate cancer so for information I have attached a link for what is available at the moment, but who knows what will be available in the future.

What an amazing post - I am so pleased for both of you. I do hope that do return from time to time as your support for others over the last 12 months has ben amazing - even though your Jacob has been on his own "journey" during this period.
Please keep us up to date with your developments as you are very much members of the "Prostate family".
Kind Regards - Brian.
