Hi Leia good to hear the PSA result, hope we get some warm weather and showers at night so no watering either, just enjoy the garden

Good news on the PSA front - I am so pleased for you.

Re teeth grinding - some years ago, the dentist made me a guard to wear at night to stop me doing this. Worth asking?

Hi Lyn,


 He has a mouth guard, and it might work if he’d put the bl@*dy thing in his gob 😎Evidently it’s uncomfortable, dare I suggest going back to the dentist… what do I know. 
Yes, we are delighted with the PSA he’s doing well, enjoying life, and he’s forgotten what a libido is. I am so glad I’m not a young wife 😏

Just got David’s PSA results a happy < 0.1 😊 Lyn, time  for you to have a celebratory fag 😉we will celebrate with a decent red wine, and maybe dance around the garden. 
It’s eight years since he was diagnosed, been a bumpy ride sometimes. The supplements, and alternative treatments seem to be doing their stuff along with the mainstream HT. 


To be able to write this eight years on with an original Gleason 9 Tb3 diagnosis. Every days a good un. 
Time to plan some autumn & winter holidays.


Leila.

Another happy <0.1 once again. David was diagnosed in in September 2015. He has weathered a heart attack and the ongoing awful Welsh weather we’ve endured lately and he’s doing well.
The pre PSA stress doesn’t get any easier for either of us, but today we smile, and book our holidays for winter.
He still takes enough medication and supplements to make him rattle, but as long as he’s doing well and the score on the doors remain where they are we are happy.
Who’d a thought it with a Gleason 9 Tb3 diagnosis eh?
Weather today is beyond awful, so I’m baking bread, reading my book and David’s writing music and playing, Happy days.

We are still working our organic veggie garden and David sings and play every day, writes music and has a post doctoral qualification in moaning.
Thanks for being there, the support is so appreciated.

Leila

Thanks Chris, it’s such a relief. So pleased you are enjoying your planes. I bought David a drone, on its maiden flight it was caught in a tree, took ages to get it down.  Definitely a wee celebration will be happening soon. 
Keep going young man.

Great news, Leila. 


Is your husband David still using the Jane McLelland diet?  Whatever, you're doing, it's working!


Best wishes,
