Abyss: Diagnosis
You’ve fallen into a black, bottomless abyss with these four life—altering words — “I have breast cancer.” You’ve entered a dark world of grief, guilt, anger, denial, fear, isolation, and anxiety. What’s going to happen, to her and to you? Welcome to the Stand by Her brotherhood, where the code of conduct is to follow, not lead; listen, not talk; laugh with her, not at her; show your love; and get support, for her, and you.

Next Steps
Breast cancer is full-scale war. It’s game on, every morning, every night, every day, every week, every month, every year, for years to come. The enemy is cancer, and you are her white knight of hope. Between you and cancer lies a gray battleground for her body, mind, and spirit, and your mind and spirit as well. That’s why her Armed Forces—her doctors, family and friends, spiritual guides, psychological advisers, and you— must be the strongest medical, emotional, mental, and spiritual team ever assembled to achieve the ultimate goal: stopping her breast cancer, for life.

Surgery

Get ready—the ultimate battle with cancer is set to begin.

Chemo & Radiation
Treatment is the longest part of the journey through Cancer Land, and it can be the most challenging emotionally, as well. Cancer has taken possession of her body, and so it’s cancer treatment’s job to evict this disgusting vagrant, for good. But to do so, treatment must conduct a red bloodbath of destruction on her body.

Emotions & Sex
You are alone, abandoned, and lost — from your loved one, your family, your friends. You’re lost at work. You are lost inside the deepest part of yourself. That’s because you’re swimming in an emotional swirl of unhappiness, mental pain and suffering with heavy psychological weights tied to your ankles as you sink below the surface of the Deep Blue Sea of Sadness. And if you are her husband, you’re might have a number of questions about your sex life – where did it go, and will it ever return?

Rebuilding
It’s over. Her last treatment has been administered. The time to leave Cancer Land and reenter daily life has finally arrived. But something has changed — forever. The world that she and you left behind when cancer appeared no longer exists; instead, replaced by the New Normal Life, which she, and you, need to embrace as a brand new green-pastured lease on life.

The Unknown
It’s over — or is it? She, and you wonder — is IT coming back? Welcome to Cancer Purgatory, a blank white space that is no place, where there is no beginning, middle or end. It just is, where everything is an eternal obsession of what—ifs.
