Hi Shane,   haven’t been on here for a long time and wondered how you are faring. My husband is 4 years post treatment now. He had his latest checkups today and all was clear. So far so good. I was following your vlogs and you while he was diagnosed and having treatment in late 2019/2020.  It took 2 years for him to overcome his side effects and the resulting depression/anxiety.  He is back working part time now as a Gardner/handy man.  h Hope your absence from here is because you are so busy living life and you don’t have time for this. 🙏🤞🤞🤞 ...

Let me know if you have any questions and I'll answer based on my experience with one.   -s   ... View more

Joe,  Thanks so much for your reply, yes that all sounds familiar and great advice. I've been trying to encourage him to join the forum but baby steps, at least he lets me read out the replies and also some of the other posts.  He didn't want to know about it before. I think he felt he could only deal with what he was going through without hearing others struggles.  So you have your 2nd bout of cancer? Is that right? Not what anyone wants.  Glad you have your wife to help you through. She sounds a sweetheart.    ... View more
