Hello,
I recently had a prostate cancer implant. I had a reading of about 3. I am 74 and at the time was in fair health and looked upon this as a new experience. I am also legally blind and use a screen reader to listen to my mail. I would like to hear from others who have underwent this therapy and how they survived. I hope to have some energy so I can continue with my walking exercises without being so grouchy.

The power of the mind is a beautiful thing!


Hope to all who have encountered cancer. She surely is an ugly word! But, there is hope for all of us. Two years and eight months ago I was diagnosed with lung cancer which had spread to my lymph nodes. I was given no chance for survival. As far as years or months they gave me a 15-25% chance of living five years. Well I am still here, and working and going strong.

They blasted me with radiation and chemo at the same time. God, was I sick! Then, I was scheduled for surgery. I was so sick. I did not believe I could make it through the surgery. But I believed, no matter what I would make it! And you will too!
E-mail me!
