His urologist recommended the cyberknife treatment. This is fairly new - 5 years of being used, so there are no guarantees, but so far it has lived up to the hype. This treatment will be a total of 5.
We have to travel 350 miles, one way, with 2 treatments one week, and 3 the next week. We have chosen to do that because we have a place to stay.
The DR told us he couldn't give us any guarantees, especially in a 30 year time frame. I told him that in 30 years, he will be 96, and probably dead anyway.
I am including a video of a similar procedure. Watch it if you want, and at your own risk. We would appreciate prayers that this will take care of the problem.
Thanks!
Oh, best wishes to hubby for a speedy recovery.

ReplyDeleteThank you for all your good wishes. He came through the 1st treatment just fine. There is no cutting involve, and no chemotherapy! Yea for that.
