I love these kind of stories. Of course not because of the illness but how other people find strength. I like how Theo wanted to make it to the drivers license
First, I hope you're hanging in there. I see you told your story 5 yrs ago, well I'm presently living where you began with PC. Thanks for sharing. I'm just realizing I'll be dealing for the rest of my life....what a concept to grab a hold of...blessings
My daddy and his daddy died from prostate cancer and my uncle had it had the surgery, it went to his brain had part of that out and is still alive in his 90s
Thank you for sharing your personal journey with prostate cancer. I have had prostate issues for years. This became secondary when in March of 2022 I was diagnosed with AML (Acute Myeloid Leukemia). I have had a bone marrow transplant and right now i am in remission. The worst part is that there is only a 20% survival rate from date of diagnosis to five years. Thanks again for sharing!
hope your doing well just diagnosed here and a mess thinking of going to clevleand clinic im 3 hours away but not sure if its the best place to go. I;m sorry you went through this maybe it could have been better if that dang dr. made you do more in beginning what a shame. this world is nuts, and I hate putting my hands into someone elses control but we have no choice. Scared and deciding which way I am going to go, your story was very important for me and others to hear thank you for that and be well for many years to come!
God bless you my brother, I'm about to get a prostate biopsy at the age of 52 in a recent PSA of 6.3 I had a clear MRI but I don't think that really means much since they still want to do the biopsy I have a 42 cc prostate am I a prostate flares up now and again so I'm just hesitant and very worried about this biopsy and what it will reveal but in the end I guess we all have to go at some time or another
How everything came back? My prostate Cancer journey has been long, surgery, radiation, medication side effects, but it’s worth it all the sacrifices brother, I’m remission now, still dealing with all that, but I will be here to see my grandkids, I wish the best luck for you and all the men that are going through this, we will ok , but we have to do our part brother, blessings 🙏
yep , its a sneaky bugger , found mine by chance , went to the doc for a medical for my drivers which had to be renewed and she insisted i do blood tests , i just turned 60 and didnt even think of prostate stories , the count came back at 5 , and thats where all the drama started
From what I am understanding, if he stopped taking the hormone treatment for the metastasis, then I can only assume he is accepting his fate with a smile.

Unusual for prostate cancer to spread to brain and lungs…
I sincerely hope that Theo is well and is enjoying the love 💕 from his beautiful family.

First thing he thought was about his grandson 😢 that brought me to tears . What a man!

I am wondering also how his wife is doing ? I pray they are both doing good
Was there not a PSMA PET ordered by the onco;ogist?
Did you have to deal with urinary incontinence and if yes… for how long and how bad was it?
Didn't he say that his PSA was in the 60 to 70 range? Or was it 14, up from 12?
Bit confused about that part.
What he said is very unclear, he says 14 then 60 - 70, then 14. It makes no sense.
So he didn’t do hormone treatment despite metastasis. Did I understand this right?
From what I am understanding, if he stopped taking the hormone treatment for the metastasis, then I can only assume he is accepting his fate with a smile.
Why did you have a biopsy in 2003 if you didn't have any symptoms?
Y’all white hate black people with cancer
Yeah wondering same thing.
Think he said he had a high psa?
