Vote for me and I’ll set you free

Believe it or not the next political campaign is upon us.

You Have Prostate Cancer. Now What?

I’m still not over the shock of hearing I have prostate cancer. My urologist told me I had three options: watchful waiting or active surveillance, radiation, or surgery. I realized I had to educate myself. The surgery is something they call a radical prostatectomy. The watchful waiting was my preferred option, but the urologist reminded me [...]
