@bobby1313 I made one very important decision back in 2021: when they told me I likely had only a few years to live (and many/most of those likely in a wheelchair), I told them I wanted to fight, hard, and I'd do whatever it took. Knowing my wishes encouraged them to give me then-new, cutting edge treatments like doublet therapy and radiation to the metastasis and the primary. They also got special permission from the health ministry to put me on Erleada (Apalutamide) before it was in the Ontario formulary.

I didn't know what all these threatments meant back then, but I had made it clear what I wanted, and I was lucky to be at a top Canadian cancer centre (entirely by chance), where they were up on the very lastest research.

I've been in functional remission ever since, and walking for most of that time.
