What I Have Learned

Hormone therapy is not easy.


It affects your body. It affects your mood. It affects your sense of self. But it also keeps the cancer under control.


It constantly reminds you of your journey. Of where you've been. Of what could have been. But importantly, that there is a future. Of the good things still to come.


For me, that trade-off has been worth it. 


Fourteen years later, my PSA remains very low.


I live with monitoring.


I live with side effects.


But - I Live.
