In 2006 they told me I would not last a year.

No. I am computer challenged. I don't know where to start

I think there are sites out there that do almost everything for you except the writing your experience part :)

One of the guys here at work just found out his wife has breast cancer (she's 43). She destroyed by it. My siste rin law was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer back in 2003 or something liek that and hande dover a hospice card right away. She lived 8 full years thereafter. I wa shaving lunch with this guy today telling him about it but thinking how much more effective it would have been if she were able to communicate her journey.

I am amazed, Todd, that you and a small handful of others with really bad numbers, have held on and done well despite the odds, yet there are guys here that with much less dire numbers, that didn't make it. PC is a fickled beast to say the least. glad you are staying on the winning side.

Awesome...

Todd -- If you'd ever like a website or blog site...I'd be glad to put something together for you.

Keep on Living...

Todd, that was a heart-warming message on Valentine's Day.

Todd,
When we spoke today I was just so freaking happy. I told Ruth the results and she was the same.

You and I spoke about publicizing your story more and it's a great suggestion from above here in this thread. This needs to be done.

I remember you, Amanda, and I sitting with Mike Scott (InfoLink fame) at dinner when we went to lobby congress for more research funding in DC. He stated that without the PSA test, you were a far more common Dx. But your case proves that we have learned how to treat this disease better.

Love ya, Todd. Ruth and I will see mount St. Helens, soon.

That is great news!!
So happy for you,

When I read that this morning it brought a huge smile to my face and tears to my eyes. Thank you for making my day Todd. You proved so many insurance people wrong when they told you Provenge was a waste of money.  I can't wait to meet you next month in Atlanta at the Todd Provenge poster guy show.

Cajun Jeff,

Why don't you drive up to my place and go over to Atlanta next month with me for lunch and a tour of the Provenge Facility with Todd and a few of us from HW for a mini GFMPH gathering.

ROCK ON TODD!!!!!
