TC diagnosis confirmation 1 month prior to wedding

Welp fellas path report came back post orchi today, exactly 30 days before my wedding 😔, as a mixed germ cell tumor.

Seminoma: 65%, embryonal carcinoma: 10%, yolk sac tumor: 10%, choriocarcinoma: 5%, teratoma: 10%

T1N0S_ doc is still waiting on a confirmation from some additional labs. Clear margins with no lymphatic invasion.

I am meeting with my oncologist next week to discuss further treatment but it sounds like 5 year surveillance. Reoccurrence % is unknown right now.

I consider myself extremely blessed to have caught this early but the mental load is taking a toll on me. Any tips on helping alleviate mental struggle with this diagnosis and future surveillance load?
