  • Hi Robyna12,

    I am so sorry to hear about your dad. From my understanding once prostate cancer has spread to the bones it's stage 4. My dad was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer in June, so I can understand how you're feeling. I'm 26 years old, and no kids, so it's been difficult knowing my dad may not know my children, if I have any. My dad has been given about 3-5 years to live, so it's been a huge shock for me since i never thought I'd have to deal with something like this at such a young age! It will get a little easier dealing with this, the initial shock is difficult to get over! I'm not saying you'll feel better, as i'm still angry about this, but I think it'll stop being at such a front stage in your mind!! If you ever need to talk, I'm always here! Please update us on how he is!
