I too would rather have my husband alive for as long as possible. It is him I am worried about as he has always had a high libido and is worried about ED. I am really more bothered for him. I just want the cancer gone and his continence to be OK, but I know that ED is most important to him. I do appreciate your kindness in offering support. I think we all need it at these crucial times.

Not ejaculate, it is a lubricant produced by the Cowper's glands. Not many men still produce this fluid post-RP (or at least not in sufficient quantity to notice) but interestingly, it can contain measurable PSA - this can be critical when assessing forensic evidence in rape cases.
