Dear friends,

This stress with my husbands health has been doing things to my heart rate! Not too fast, but 100-110bpm., but with lots of "pauses". I've also resumed some panic attacks. Mostly while trying to shop!

I've had Tom to MDAnderson. The news got worse...higher PSA-14, Gleason score was divided left/right prostate 8/9 and Cancer stage T3. Radiation followed by hormone therapy is the "only" cure they said, with a cure rate there at MDA of only 35%-40%, for "stable" PSA for 5yrs, before returning. Didn't like the odds, so are looking at Radio Therapy Clinic of Georgia RCOG.

I've jumped through everyone's hoops so far, and should get a call from a physician to interview Tom next week. Of course, tomorrow AM, I begin "pushing" again to get him seen asap!

I've finally got an apointment that my PCPhys. wanted with a Psychiatrist to look at my anti-depressant meds....April 13! You wouldn't believe the hoops THAT requied.

Needless to say, I'm feeling like....doggey doo, hurting, crying, got a headache, belly ache and heart ache.

Miss you guys SO much, but need to do what we gotta' do!

Love, Sarah
