Synopsis

Rick and Brenda's lives were changed forever when Rick went to the doctor to get a prescription refill. The doctor unexpectedly decided to perform a prostate exam. When he did, he felt a suspicious lump. Weeks later, a biopsy confirmed that Rick had prostate cancer. As a couple, they found their lives changed in unexpected ways following robotic surgery. They decided to share an intimate glimpse into their lives after surgery so other couples would be more prepared than they were. If you are thinking about surgery, or if you just had surgery, you will want to read about their experiences and the life lessons they learned along the way.

From the Author

I was shocked when I received the diagnosis of prostate cancer as most men are. At a time when you are in a heighten stated of anxiety and fear, you must make one of the most important decisions of your life, which is how to treat your prostate cancer. My wife and I decided to share our journey with one goal in mind, which is to help other couples thinking about or choosing surgery as their treatment option. Adjusting to life after prostate surgery isn't as easy as the ads for robotic surgery make it sound.
     In order to help others on their journey from diagnosis to adjusting to their new life post surgery, My wife & I decided to share our intimate emotional, relational, sexual, and spiritual struggles. In addition, we share our mistakes, victories, insights, humor, and faith. 
     There are questions at the end of most chapters which can be used by couples in the privacy of their homes, or in a support group. If you are thinking about prostate surgery, you'll want to read this book
