Where we're at. Two weeks ago our world was normal life and suddenly this horrendous situation. Our son has had a scan showing a medium tumour, blood tests normal. He has seen the urologist, who has hinted that it possibly may not have spread as no other symtoms. He awaits a CT and removal of said tumour. Pippa Pepper
Thank you so much for your message. I am not replying to this by name as worried might be your real name. You have certainly been through it as a family, I am heartened you're son is now well. For us the shock is wearing off now as a reality. We now prime ourselves for each appointment, then the myriad of feelings. We are approaching as positively as possible and focusing on the positives given so far. He in a week has surgery and await the scan date. As a mum I am being positive and calm at all times with him and he can talk about everything with me and has shared all the facts. For me holding it together helps me keep a grip. This site has been a blessing for me. I knew nothing of all of this and I feel the support and the positivity of the men and families going through this and moving forward offers huge hope. Thank you all. PepperP
