Exercise May Be Important

... to the prevention of cancer. We just found out my dad has prostate cancer, so I want to remind you to exercise yours.

EXERCISE 'EM IF YOU GOT 'EM!!!

Well, the diagnosis was bad, but the prognosis is very good. A bone scan revealed nothing more than arthritic fingers, so the cancer is expected to be fully containable and treatable. Treatment will all go down sometime in early ought six. In the mean time there are 2nd opinions and opinions from doc friends and opinions from friends and cousins with prostate cancer to be gathered and considered.

I've heard it said that prostate cancer is something that you die with, not from. Still, it's always scary to mutter the big C when it's in your family - especially when you consider the genetic component of the disease. I'm glad it's looking good for now.
