Could be too that when you're 75 and someone tells you you have cancer and will only live till 85 if it's left untreated you think "10 more years at this age sounds ok" then you blink and you're 84.5 and suddenly that 85 doesn't sounds so old.

Oh Tink what a story it brought tears to my eyes too.. Diana I am sorry to hear about your FIL. My FIL was diagnoised with prostate cancer 10 years ago and he is now 85 and doing well. He goes for treatments every few mts. and it seems pretty contained. It is true when you get this cancer older it does not mutate so quickly. My girlfriend's dad is about 93 and he has it for many many years. I will keep your inlaws in my prayers..
