Andy Puddicombe spent years as a monk, certain he'd given up the dream of ever having a child.
Then he landed in America and found out overnight he had testicular cancer. Advanced, aggressive, surgery in four days.
The doctor told him if he wanted kids, he had three or four days to get to the sperm bank.
Next came the scans. Had it spread? Had it reached his brain?
What saved Puddicombe was being okay with not knowing. Sitting in that doctor's chair, he was alive and in no pain. “Everything else is an idea.”
His image for it: stay present on the side of the road instead of hopping in the cancer car and driving miles down the what ifs.
Two months after the operation, his wife got pregnant.
Their son is 18 months old now. Exhausting, he says, and the thing he's most grateful for.
