and just because I'm curious, let's just see how far this support forum reaches - literally. I'll start ...

My husband and I live just outside of Toronto, Ontario, Canada (otherwise known as the Great White North) - and our place of treatment is the widely recognized Princess Margaret Hospital where are you from and where is your treatment centre?

We have lived here for 23 years and I'm still trying to figure it out! We have I have a Lake Worth Florida mailing adress but everyone around here says we live in Lantana. I don't pay taxes or get water from either so I'm guessing Palm Beach County Florida! Thats why we call it Flori~Da! (Home of the "Hanging Chad's") So anyway, I fired a bunch of Urologist here who mainly treat what are locally called "Blue Heads" who I didn't take to very well. No offense to any of the elder members of our group, I was 50 at the time! After much studying and research, we descided on Johns Hopkins in Baltamore, Md. God Bless Them!

Your friend,

Las Vegas, Nevada. I'd tell you more but it has to stay in Vegas. ;-)

But I didn't. For surgery I travelled to the City of Hope near Los Angeles where Dr. W.ilson did his fine work.
