I am still laughing at that map. I heard on the radio yesterday, during my long car ride, that Obama finally committed to an appearance at Binghamton University. It’s definitely on. Woo-ha. I think I will pass.

In early stages it is very treatable. Is he just resigning to it?

Since May? No, he is in denial and incredible cheerful.

God watch over you folks ... my brother still shows PSA’s over 4 since a “complete” prostate removal nearly five years ago. He’s back on limited chemo — though why with the same Dr, I don’t know.

That means cells escaped. Scary. DH’s brothers PSA was in the hundreds. Really scary.

Denial is not good. What stage is it in?

It was caught early, but the surgeon said because of a couple of things and his brother he is anxious about it and advised getting it out soon. DH wants the recommendation to be leave it alone, so he is. Some of his samples were at 70% already....not a good sign.

I was looking forward to jury duty, got a summons and a date. Was chatting with the DA when she was here for her meet and greet; she said since I am an EMT I will probably get bumped out. Dang, what a disappointment that will be. Said she saw my name on the list. Supposedly it’s a DUI case. Still, I want on it.

He needs to rethink it. If it were another cancer, I’d agree with him. But early treatment of prostate cancer is worth the try. How old is he? Is there any way to go to a different surgeon he may feel better with?

Never been called myself, but unlikely that an atty would make it through challenges. My SIL sat on a grand jury for a few months in Ohio.
