As I noticed this is your first post with us, I wanted to stop by and welcome you to Cancer Chat, Alice1997 although I'm sorry to hear about the reason that brings you here.

It can be confusing and frightening to have a loved one diagnosed with cancer so what you're feeling at the moment and the questions you're asking are perfectly normal.

We do have some information here on the website about prostate cancer and I hope this can help to shed some light on your grandad's condition until you have a chance to chat with other forum members who have gone through a similar experience.

Also, please know that our team of nurses are available on this phone number 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. if you feel that speaking with someone medically trained may help.

Wishing you and your grandad all the best,

Renata, Cancer Chat Moderator
