Prostate surgery worries me…

by Kendra James, RN on August 8th, 2008

My father is having his prostate surgery this week. We are both nervous and anxious to get it over with. I know he is nervous as all hell but he would never let it show. You always look at your Dad as this strong man that is invincible- but then as you get older you realize he is just as human as you. I know he has many emotions and is scared to death. Of the uncertain, the what ifs, the thought of incontinence and impotence- it is all very real.

Has anyone out there had any experience with a prostatectomy? He is having the Da Vinci method? Being a nurse I know too much- I am scared for him- not about the cancer but about the things that could go wrong. Any positive thoughts and prayers are always welcome.
