" I am so sorry to hear about your cancer returning. I am a survivor of testicular cancer and it took alot out of me. I was fortunate to have a wife who went with me and stood by me and still does even though our sex life is pretty non existant now because of al I went through. I will keep you in my prayers. "

" I'm sorry to hear about you getting the cancer back. My husband is currently fighting testicular cancer. I have no clue why wife's leave. I know it's hard to be the spouse also but I could not imagen leaving my husband because if it. My husband had cancer in one testical and in the lymphnodes. He went through all the treatments and was declared clean in March in April they find it in his lungs and liver so now he has gone through chemo again and are getting to rounds of stem cell transplants. I hope for the best for you. "
