Important Information About Prostate Cancer
To change course to an important topic, there is a drive to provide men and their loved ones with information on prostate cancer--from detection to treatment. One out of every six American males will be diagnosed with prostate cancer, which is the most common cancer in men after skin cancer. The good news is that advance screenings provide early detection and diagnosis, and prostate cancer is virtually 100% curable if diagnosed early. Men over fifty and black males are at the highest risk. Learn more about the disease and early detection. Here are a few helpful links:

Posted by Woody M. at January 5, 2007 10:00 AM | TrackBackYep, Woody good advice.
I had Prostate Cancer (PCa) at age 64, had it frozen with Cryo Surgery at age 65..
It has now been 12 years clean and clear, thank the Lord.
Absolutely start getting tested at least by age 50 or earlier if there is a history of PCa in your family because early diagnosis is essential, especially for patients who are diagnosed in the ages 45-50. PCa id very aggressive when PCa strikes that early.
I would recommend a person not panic if PCa is diagnosed, but consider all options, not necessarily the first suggestion from a Urologist. I researched very extensively and corresponded with thousands of fellow victims before making my decision for Cryo Surgery.
I'll be happy to correspond with anyone who has questions. Jack [] at [] weaverclan [] dot [] com

expreacher, thanks for sharing your experience and I'm very happy for your positive outcome. I enjoyed your advice on your site.
Also, for others, expreacher asked if anyone could donate a used computer to replace a family XT used by the kids for school work but that just gave out. If you can help him with something just a little more current, then go to his site and get in touch with him.

Thanks Woody,
I appreciate the plug for the computer. It is still needed.
God Bless, ExP(Jack)
