Waiting for the results of the biopsy is the worst part. 20 years ago, I was diagnosed testicle cancer and now the question was how aggressive is this "thing", which stage am I in or is it just a harmless tumor. We had just bought a house and wanted to start a family with children. And then this. It turned out that I "just" had a slowly evolving type of tumor but the affected "egg" had to be removed because it might spread later. In any case, my wife's love was the most important thing during this time and the certainty that medicine can do a lot after all (and one egg is enough to impregnate a woman). I now have two wonderful girls. Look, medicine has come a long way. All will be good, trust me.
