My husband has just received his biopsy results Gleason 4+3, T3N0 every time we jump through one hurdle/appointment we have another one placed in front of us and thus a delay to starting treatment. His MRI results appointment was postponed from 6 weeks post scan to 4 months. We were told that once he had the biopsy results he would start treatment. Now, though , another uncertain delay waiting for a bone scan.
however, what I really want to say is that prostate cancer is not just an illness affecting the patient! Wives and partners, if they are like me, might even find it hard too. Please could you consider having a ‘wives and partners’ group?
in the meantime, I spend my days trying to be brave and supportive but, inside, I am frightened, exhausted because of the unknowns and delays and hurting for my husband.
Hello Worried Wife,
Thats says it all !
The first few months are so hard,,... especially the shock, acknowledging potential changes to the future you envisaged...telling the kids, friends etc..... then when you know what you are dealing with you can focus, again this is hard as what will the treatment be like, is this the right treatment there are so many options what if you choose the wrong one? , then when you have had treatment, you await the results, that's hard, that's really hard .........has it worked...good results but consultant then says you need go await a trend to know how things have gone..........................
The whole business is a worry!! 
Don't think it will go away but cling to the positives and LIVE.
We are all with you every step.
