Unhappy Life threw me a hard ball

Ok guys!! I have had a lot going on lately and it seems that it is never ending. My husband will kill me for sharing this but I just can't do it any more on my own. My husband has been dignosed with having a enlarged prostate and put on meds. If the meds don't work then he will have to it removed this is a hard reality. We have been given the worst case senio that it possible he has prostate cancer but many other things can contribute to an enlarged prostate as well. He goes on the tenth to get tested. This is a hard thing to face at the age of 27. Yes I have faith in God that all will be well but I can't help but wonder what it really is.

There is no way to tell you not to worry, but don't panic. You'll get more info soon and you'll deal with whatever it is. He is young, he could be just fine even if the worst were true.

Prayers coming your way!

Prayers coming your way. Totally understandable that you are worried. We faced cancer with my husband in 1999 and its a tough go. Hang in there.

im so sorry to hear you are dealing with this. Fortunately for you he is young and you guys are well ahead of the curve cause time has alot to do with how bad these things can get(runs in my moms side of the families men).

You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I just want to thank you all. I know that no matter the outcome you all will be there. I appreciate it a lot. I am so stressed that anything I eat makes me sick. My husband as lovely as he is has made me take it easy for a few days and get some rest.
