My wife runs the Urology clinic at Johns Hopkins so I am fully aware of all facets of Prostate cancer and what can be done to combat it. A world renowned doc, who is a past Chairman of the Urology Dept. is the brilliant man sent from heaven who discovered the nerves that let men (and their spouses/partners) still have quality of life after Prostate removal. Until that discovery, things were “soft” because those nerves were severed during surgery. Several other docs have tracked patients and can now quantitvely evaluate the growth of the cancer (not 100%, but darn near), and make recommendations based on that data.
Guys (and their gals), please get checked every year. Our age group is the most vulnerable, but with proper physicals life as we know it can go on. This is no laughing matter.
