While I would never wish cancer on anyone and I hope that he beats it, I refuse to root for him or the War Chickens. I don't see how he got a pass on his bad behavior and Art can't get a job. I am biased because I grew up hating Ole Miss.

My doctor told me almost all men will get prostate cancer and most won't die from it. So hopefully it works out and can be managed/treated easily.

I was diagnosed with prostate cancer about 2 years ago and went through radiation and hormone therapy. Since then my psa has been 0.0. Sounds like they caught it early so he probably will live a while.

I read a book from a guy who underwent treatment and said "This is the end of dignity." Got that right.

Yes, prostate cancer is prevalent in men and, yes, most men will die with prostate cancer instead of of prostate cancer. However, it is still the second highest form of cancer that leads to death in men. Like other cancers, prostate cancer is an umbrella term, in this case encompassing probably 159 different forms of the disease. Most men get a milder and slower growing form in their 60s to 80s. If you get it in your 40s or 50s, you by definition have a more aggressive form. Because the technology and medicine keeps advancing, Freeze is likely going to be okay, but he probably has a different form than what someone's grandfather gets late in life. Word to the wise to all male readers: get checked early and often.

The home kit must be certainly better than the 24 hr cleanes. It was a breeze for me after years of procrastinating.
