Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Prostate Cancer / December 2003Anniversary
Three years ago today, I was cut from stem to stern (slight exaggeration) and my uro mined my belly for prostate (no exaggeration). Today, I'm off to work, and will probably put in ten hours. My daughter got engaged two nights ago (last one). My son is about to present me with a grandson (first one). The house from which we moved on September 2 just sold last night for $3,000 less than what we were asking (which is to say $2000 more than I was expecting). And, I have still yet to have the first symptom of prostate cancer. Yes, people. Life is good! I wish you all a Very Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukah, or Seasons Greetings -- whichever is your flavor. I dearly thank each and every one of you for the years of excitement, empathy, encouragement, sadness, fear and honesty. I look back over this year with but one regret (June 15, may he rest in peace). You all come from so many backgrounds with a singule common denominator, but as a whole, you are one of the greatest groups in all the world.

Its easy to focus so strongly on this disease that you forget the things in life that we are now able to enjoy. Thanks for bringing this into perspective! Happy holidays! Bruce > Yes, people. Life is good! That just about says it all. Hope everybody has a great holiday. SignatureWake Age 58 PSA 3.8 Biopsy positive 5% in 1 of 10 cores Gleason 3+3 T1c RP scheduled 1/12/04 Great Steve. Wishing you many more. (And congratulations on the last daughter engagement and the pending gradchild!) DanR Yes Steve, life is good! Thank you for all your great imput to this group, I wish you to have a very happy Christmas! Fernando Merry Christmas to you too, Steve, unofficial Membership Chairman! You've been a great help, and I'm happy to have met you and the others that come to share here (but I'd like to move that we not have so many club meetings in hospitals, okay?). Oh yeah --- don't forget Whose birthday it is! Larry > Three years ago today, I was cut from stem to stern (slight exaggeration) > and my uro mined my belly for prostate (no exaggeration).

There is no perfect life, it's just what we make of it. Counting the positives is better than the negatives any day! Every day that passes is one day closer to a cure. Every day is another gift of time. Bev > Three years ago today, I was cut from stem to stern (slight exaggeration) > and my uro mined my belly for prostate (no exaggeration).
