Sorry to hear the prognosis for your husband, but tell him to stay positive, they can do wonders nowadays, and if caught early its one of the ones they can fix quite easily. My dad was diagnosed with it 20 years ago, and he's still doing fine now in his mid 70's. Fortunately in Australia we have free prostate and breast cancer checks every few years - its something I think every country and government should offer.
