From: Beverley on 22 Jun 2006 22:06 We are all dying- we just don't know it. You are living life to the fullest right now! You have those grandbabies to play with and more on the way. Your life has allowed you to grab the bull by the horns and that is more than most men ever do. In fact most men would cringe if they had to trade lives with you. But you've faced life head on for years, you work hard and play hard! You've just crammed more living into your life then most of us will ever do. 0.145 ain't that bad. It's not 145.0 Now, go beat the odds!

From: John Loomis on 22 Jun 2006 23:01 Hello Steve, I agree with Beverly. Live your life, beat the odds. I would not be able to type this minute if I gave in (1999) I was 49, a young man, getting his prostate ripped out..... I may be here for some time, I may not, but I will give it my best. Keep us posted, and keep a positive attitude. Attitude does fight invasion. Casodex....is that a hormone like Lupron? Does it stop testosterone? May be? That tends to slow cancer growth/prostate cancer. Wish you the best. Your friend, John Loomis A fighter till the end......................
