Well, there's enough denial going on right now....about my father. And to a certain point he's in minor denial. But what can we do?

But if we were to hammer at my father now about this point, that he won't live for many years now with prostate cancer at an intermediate stage..that will pull him down pyschologically and most likely he'll slide faster. He has not yet elected to take chemotherapy which will mean several wks. daily of chemotherapy. It won't stop cancer, it will only delay it and most likely chemotherapy will permanently and more quickly weaken him... Meaning his immune system will be weakened alot. He's 83, not 33.

And surgery will not stop it.

There are some complex challenges that lie ahead.. We just hope he will be still alive to witness a grandson's wedding next yr.
