Are there support groups for wives of husbands who had cancer of the prostate?

My happy married life has collapsed since my husband prostatectomy for cancer. Small problems here have grown, and now I sleep in a separate room. I'm in a place I do not want to be now.

You are in difficult times. I've been there twice, so I know how you feel – I found this time one of spiritual growth and it was really fantastic. The Cancer Society in your area is your best place to seek help. Good luck you and yours ..
