I'm submitting a post here to emphasise that media reports that Consultants, Doctors and clinicians have had to make difficult decisions is not just a story, my surgery has been cancelled and the drop in centre for urinary tract cancers in my city has been closed. It's scary, difficult enough to come to terms with the cancer, the long term impact of the surgery and apprehension of the surgery itself. Now, that mental adjustment we all have to make is on hold and with no date fixed for when the situation will change. If you too have prostate cancer, not yet had any treatment and feeling somewhat bemused if not a little scared about the caner spreading, please understand you are not alone. I am comforting myself by looking on a positive side, my cancer WILL remain where it is, the surgery will happen in a timely fashion once this dreadful virus allows and that the cancellation has been done to protect me, remove the danger of contracting the virus whilst visiting the hospital or on the journey to and from. My very best wishes to all in my position and those indirectly affected, family relatives to those who have the cancer.
