in Prostate Cancer #1
Fourteen years ago I had diagnosis of prostate cancer. I got a series of radiation beam treatments and then on Lupron whenever the PSA spiked. I have beat it for 14 years. Now my Gleason is 8 active cancer. I will be dead but I will go fighting it. I plan on being 92 for my 75th wedding aniv. My sex life well, har de har har. Got breasts no bra. Penis is shrunk to a large clit. Now I can't pee normally have to cath every 6hr. The good news is I'm active and can travel ok. Going back to college. And I am alive!!!
If they give you 6 months to live tell 'em to stuff it.
