Popeye Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Jim: Interesting article this, it is terrible for any man to receive a diagnosis of advanced PC but we tend to think of specialists as immune from the patients perspective and effects from the disease. Just goes to show we are all equal in sickness and health. Popeye aka Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidAbrahams Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 A good down to earth article which I have passed to help raise awareness and perhaps save a life! Although I wonder if we had 3 leading Australian Urologists diagnosed with Prostate Cancer would they be prepared to share their story. Thanks Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
