Don't know what to say that has any meaning. Bless your sole. I wish the best for you and yours. You will be in my prayers.

lotsa fun! That was about five or six years ago, the third one did the charm. One big problem living in Appalachia, you sure don't want to get sick. I would have opted for Proton Radiation Therapy, but insurance wouldn't cover it.

Now I live my life in three month segments, never planning anything in advance of that time period. Every three months I get screened, if ok, I get three more. If the result is bad, it's in the bones, and for me, it's over.

This may seem odd, but I have to say, it's been somewhat liberating. I have all my affairs(such as they are) in order. Now a days when I think about my life before, it's amazing how many trivial things (and pretty much everything is trivial) my day to day concerns were. Roof leaks? not a big deal. Boss is mad? who cares?

Next year I plan to start unburdening myself of all my worldly goods. It shouldn't take too long. I came into this world with nothing, and that's the way I plan to leave.

My only real regret is that I didn't come up with a Unified Theory (at least not yet, though I'm still working on it). Oh...and my epic novel remains unfinished.

Prayers for your surgery and recovery Bruce.
January 2, 2015 I had a radical prostatectomy via DaVinci robotic surgical machine.
I'm now cancer free.

Be a good patient, and listen to the medical professionals, they do know what they are talking about...well most of the time.

I had the needle biopsy 2 years ago but negative. They are watching me close. My father died from it but as you say more men live with prostate cancer then die from it. You got my prayers. It will work out.
