Prostate Cancer...

[Trish Bessette]

My most favorite person in the world, my Dad was diagnosed with prostate cancer 4 years ago. He had the prostate removed and his PSA remained at zero after the surgery. Last year it rose to a 1 and in January it rose to a 2. Tomorrow he is having a bone scan to see if the cancer could have moved to the bones. I love my Dad. I pray with all my being that this won't be the case.

Just got a call from my Mother. My step father just got back from his doctor appt and they found a growth on his prostate. Biopsy is next week and results the following.

I believe in the power of prayer and would appreciate them! Thanks everyone, you guys are great for support and this time I think it's me that need it.

Any advise you have from someone you know having prostate cancer is appreciated.

My prayers are with you. I lost my dad to prostrate cancer last August. I don't have any advice as his was found way too late - he had several other health problems. Just wanted to send you my hugs and prayers. Hang in there. Prayer works miracles.

My FIL just had his prostate removed last week. He's home now and slowly recovering.

I'm so so sorry to hear that the cancer may have spread. Hang in there and pray that this is not the case.

Do you mind if I ask how old your father is?

Lots of good thoughts coming your way.

Are they being treated at DHMC? If so, PM me and maybe we can have lunch.

No, up here at FAHC in Burlington. (It's so nice to have another Vermonter here )

Thanks for the good thoughts, I really appreciate it!
