Hi Wayne -
You are heading in the right direction. You've had the surgery, now you have a plan for the radiation. It is not easy - but you've got a lot of support right here. Please pass along this website to your family & friends. It helps. As my husband's caregiver, I found so much advice, hope and friendship during some very dark hours right here on this website. The road you are on is difficult - but you CAN make it. Depression has been a critical issue for my husband. He was so very relucant to admit he needed help with an 'emotional problem' - but I have to tell you that the anti-depressants saved his life. Seriously. It has been over a year since his diagnosis and we are 9 months out from treatment. Today he is doing very well and he is the very first to tell anyone to get help for the 'emotional problems'.

Visit here often - when ever you need a sounding board, or just need to complain. We are on this on this journey together and all are willing to help light up your path.

Hang in there - one day at a time.
Carol
