Time for Life!

Posted bybobnrobertsPosted inUncategorized

I choose to be positive in my living life. Not always easy however.

There are times, like when waiting for my blood test results, that I an tense and “off” a bit. My wife notices it and herself might be the same. But all thru it still positive.

Must confess that I see the world around me in a way different light than before this second diagnosis of Cancer. Like all of us with this disease I didn’t expect it. Given my second Cancer I thought I knew what to expect. Boy was I off.

There are options, many, many more options. Almost too many. But there are only three paths. Each with their own options. Surgery. Radiation. Do nothing.

For this post I will not go into details but will gladly say that in the first options all the doctors & staff were kind, emphatic, and positive.

The thing that tests me is the unknown. Unknown of the ongoing world activities. Unknown of how all the goings on will effect me now and in the future.

Thru all this I have one set of constants: Love of my wife, love of family, and love of Life. Cherish life and Live it with a Positive attitude!

I am a retired Controls Engineer, Teacher and Code Officer. While in teaching I worked with students in crisis. This taught me to listen. Before all that I had Testicular Cancer in 1975 . In both cases I had radiation but for the Prostate it was much more detailed, sophisticated, and focal. My initial Prostate Cancer, Gleason 9 aggressive, treatment included Radiation and Hormone therapy. I am now on my third round of treatments. Yes the Cancer has returned but no spreading so far. PET scans, bone scans, MRI and lots of xrays under my belt. Along the way I wrote a book about my Cancer experience, titled the same as this Blog. I need to share my thoughts on Cancer and life in general. Life is too precious to spend it angry, in pain, with fear, and doubts. All I am trying to do is help others with Cancer be better.
