What Men Won't Talk About . . . and Women Need to Know: A Woman's Perspective on Prostate Cancer

Prostate cancer is not an automatic death sentence and it certainly is not the death of intimacy in a relationship. My husband's diagnosis gave us an opportunity to grow and learn together. Even more than that, it provided an incentive to live life to the fullest and never let pass any opportunities to express love. Glenda's book, What Men Won't Talk About and Women Need to Know, chronicles her husband's prostate cancer journey from a woman's perspective.
