No harvesting e-mail addresses for Spam;
No insults or flaming - be polite and respectful at all times and understand that there may be a variety of points of view, all of which may have some validity;
Opinions are OK, but please provide as much factual evidence as possible for any assertions that you are making
Failure to abide by these simple rules will result in the immediate and permanent suspension of your posting privileges.

Hi there - My dad is battling advanced prostate cancer that has spread to his ureter, lymph nodes, and his spine. Right now he is on hormone therapy and is doing chemo every 3 weeks. That is the treatment plan for now. He just had his first chemo session, so we are not sure if it is shrinking the cancer yet. Are any of you in a similar situation? How are you doing? I'm just looking to find some hope in my Dad's prognosis. Many thanks and all the best to you all battling this disease!
