My husband was just diagnosed with it about six months ago, too. He just turned 45. It sucks, but it's good to be aware of it and use it as motivation to care for yourself. Don't fall into the trap of taking better care of yourself for a month, then going back to all the old habits because you feel good enough. Not that I know anyone close to me who may have done that. *AHEM husband omg c'mon man AHEM*.... Anywho, it's understandable if you feel jarred by the news, because it's not fun to hear, for sure. I wish you only goodness and improved health from learning this news! :)
