About KayW73

Wife (46) to husband (55) recently diagnosed (Aug 2019) with prostate cancer (Gleason 7). Parents to 2 daughters 8 and 12 yrs old, who are both autistic (hence avatar), husband is probably on the spectrum too but currently undiagnosed. Husband is considering brachytherapy but waiting to have his first appointment with oncologist before making a final decision... Already contacted local (Bedfordshire) PC support group, but would appreciate any advice on how I can support him physically and emotionally, plus would like to talk to anyone about pro's/cons of the various treatments, recovery times etc. Also happy to offer friendship/support to group.
