tongue  Yea and Wow, we can breathe again! Rod had his catheter out today is visiting the potty and doing kegals frequently but happy as a clam. MD said it was a small area confined to the prostate and those wonderful words "you are cancer free" . We will get the full path. report either later today or next week, but his next appointment is in 2 months for the first psa. We know the road to dryness is our next challenge, but we'll take today as a great gift. I can honestly say that the support of this forum and all of the great folks here have brought us this far. I'll keep you posted. :-) Annie

Hey great news and isn't it nice to be un-hooked so as to speak. Here's hoping your future PSA tests look as good as your present pathology report and may you have dry days very soon.

Good Luck

Congratulations and welcome to the other side.  It was just a short time ago you were sweating the procedure  and worrying how to get thru the week before.  Now the healing begins, good news on getting the cancer out. yeah Good luck on the dryness problem but it too will pass.

Rod is free! Getting that darned catheter out was the 2nd best day of my life (the first best is ALWAYS your wedding day - got that, guys?). Congrats and good luck going forward.
