@surftohealth88 I think it gets back to the "two prostate cancers" thing. Many people — even patients — know only about the slow developing kind, the one that you find out about in your late 60s, 70s, or 80s, is often borderline, and that you're more likely to die with than of.

What's less understood is the fast-developing kind of prostate cancer, the one you often find out about before 60, and spreads so fast that it may already have metastasised by the time you first know of it. It's the type that killed famous people like Johnny Ramone and Frank Zappa at a very young age, but fortunately, over the past 10 years or so, they've developed new practices and treatments for people like your husband and me, and they *may* be able to keep us alive indefinitely (we're the guinea-pig generation, but signs so far are promising).
