John, Congrats on those specific numbers. We hope that you continue to do well and feel well. Like others have posted, we did enjoy meeting and getting to know a little about you at last weekends...
Yup, Cajun Jeff, you nailed it, Jim was a nice guy, and very well educated and fun to visit with. He was always willing to lend a hand or words of encouragement to those of us dealing with PCa. We'll...
Jim and Karen, Jeannie and I send our thoughts, and much positive energy to you both, at this difficult time. As others have stated, you have been such a strong warrior for this damnable PCa, and you...
Hey Todd, So glad that things are good and that you get to do the "Happy Dance". Right now, you are enjoying Cajun and Pat's company, and from last week's stay with us, we know that it's a blast. May...
Just noted on ESPN, that Cleveland Cav. center, Hot Rod Williams, was diagnosed with PC this past summer, and died from it this week. What a waste ,.... again. RIP Hot Rod....
Howdy, That day sure sounds like a GFMPH day, Good for you, as our good friend Sonny says "Every Day is a Bonus". May you have many more just like it. Cowboy...
Worried Guy, Well, like you, this past June, I hit my 5 yrs. of status post robotic radical prostatectomy. Man, did those 5 yrs. fly by. And, during these past 5 yrs., after finding some wonderful...
Lisa/Frank Hey, just wanted to let you know that we are just a US 95 drive south of you, here in Idaho County. You are getting much better advice here on the forum than I can offer, as, my Prostate...
"It was fun while it lasted" Cowboy...
With the snow and cold here in Idaho that has persisted for what seems like a very long time, we look so forward to spending time with good people in the state of Florida for this upcoming GFMPH. As...
bigal, Hey, it sure enough can happen, it happened to me, and progressed into penile fibrosis. Once I had penile fibrosis, the injections were basically useless, as the spongy tissues could not...
Good deal SC, get that "feeling" back and maybe you'll feel better. Cowboy...
Bronson, That is wonderful news, and congrats to you for having gone through the Rad. treatments, and coming out on the other side with a positive attitude and at least a 5 year new "lease on life"....
Hee Haw !! Cajun Jeff. But, I'm thinking that the PSA didn't stand a chance after the amount of ETOH (alcohol) consumption on a week long cruise, with a bunch of "Living Loud" GFMPH buddies. You...
GFMPH ??? What in the hell is that all about ?? Ironically, we already purchased airline tickets to Orlando about that same time in March 2014. Maybe Mickey Mouse won't be the hottest attraction in...
OK, My guess is 42, which would not suggest an aggressive pattern, ???? We'll see....
Jazzman, Congrats buddy, keep playing that guitar, it's got be helping too, and we always like for Cajun to have "Music to his ears", as he does know a thing or two about music. May you have many...
Sephie Way to describe it !!! I never could have come even close to your description. And, that you experienced such positive energy about the GFMPH gathering, makes it the whipped cream on the top...
Oh Yeah, .....we like to see those numbers headed in that direction. May you continue to experience that trend, and stay healthy. Cowboy...
Oh Yeah !! Another successful GFMPH gathering, and Number 3 for us. As so many here have so eloquently stated, it was a wonderful time to see old friends, and make new ones. Worried Guy and his...
The fires in Idaho are very serious today as I type this message. There is a large one just east of our ranch somewhere within 15 miles of us. They are attacking it with multiple aircraft, water...
Oh, we love to hear about those "ZEROS"....Congrats Kbota, just keep that trend "a runnin"...
Howdy !! The Idaho connection will be there in Hilton, NY again this coming September. Well fly into Buffalo, NY on Sunday ahead of GFMPH to spend some time with old high school friends that reside...
Sonny, Wasn't this ole cowboy that outted you ! Jeannie says that I'm not good at keeping secrets, but this one was "under this ole hat" (Chris LeDouex song). But, oh what a GFMPH this will be for...
Autumn GFMPH New York ???? Oh, what the hell.......guess maybe it would be a good time to visit upstate NY to hang with our PCa buddies. The airline tickets are purchased and arrangements for road...
Jitters, Please find a measure of comfort in knowing that his pain has ended. And kudos for going that extra mile to get him to "The Lone Ranger". You shall be blessed for your devoted love of one of...
Sending big hugs and positive energy to Ohio for our Goodlife guy. The word out there today is that you are cranking with your nursing staff, so this bodes well for your recovery, you ornery ole...
To you ALL ! Yup, Sherry's description here must have lead to some sort of damned sand storm here in Idaho, as I find myself trying to clear away the moisture from my eyes. Thanks Sherry for sharing...
So many here have reached out, and some have said that they "never knew Bud"..... But, if you read his posts, and/or you received encouragement or advice from him through this forum, then.....you...
Linda, Dallas & Jeannie from Idaho send to you, your family and Bud our love and meditations. As you have read here, Bud is an amazing man that has given so much to so many of us that walk this PCa...
I have seen two doctors at "The Idaho Urological Institute" over the past several years, and I wouldn't send my worst enemy to them. Overpriced, overpaid, non-caring physician group, if I ever saw...
I served in the US Navy, as a Hospital Corpsman, initially stateside (US Naval Hospital, Orlando, FL), then off to the US Naval Hospital, San Diego, CA, working in the ER. Then, off to the USS Fresno...
Kubota, Way to go !! Congrats on that low, low PSA and that rising Mr. T !!! There is nothing wrong with "Frisky", it's your turn . May you continue to keep continuing . D & J :turn:...
Interesting conversation here. A female GP in "lil ole Grangeville, ID" performed a DRE on me once upon a time, and low and behold, what did she palpate with her small, narrow digits......Can you say...
Chrissy, As so many have typed here, we are so sorry for your loss. May you find true comfort in knowing that his suffering is truly over with. And, you are his hero for being there and loving him...
News Flash: Cause of death for actor Jack Klugman,..........Prostate Cancer. And, yet, it was reported that his death was sudden, unexpected. WTF is this all about. Cowboy...
AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.............The sweet sound of saying the word "ZERO" !! We all should never get tired of hearing that spoken. And, should hope that each of our PCa buddies get to report like...
Well, now isn't that just plain cool Bronson !! I know that you will enjoy the visit, and so will Worried Guy and his beautiful wife. We wish that we could join you. Cheers Cowboy...
Kubota, Congrats on more ZERO's, we all like to read about maintaining zero or undetectable. And, the camping trip sounded like fun, we thought about you 4 today as we drove thru a blinding rain...
Has your Urologist suggested having a transrectal Color Doppler ultrasound test. I believe that I could go that route first, as it is much more comfortable to undergo that procedure compared to a...
So awful that this young man lost his life to this horrible disease that has attacked so many of us. We find comfort now in knowing that he no longer has to deal with the pain. And, as we see in a...
Back on the Ranch..... Well, it is difficult to put into words what the GFMPH gathering in NY has meant to Jeannie and I. As Sonny has posted already, all of the best words have been taken to...
Hey Guys, Jeannie and I can hardly wait for our chance to again enjoy Skype with our brothers and sisters that gather for GFMPH Yankee style coming up this weekend. It is always a nice way to connect...
Hey Folks, What the hell was she thinking ??? I'm guessing that she will be found guilty of something....
We have a small ranch that is located near the South Fork of the Clearwater River in North Central Idaho. And, all of my life, I've been a cowman and horse man, so the pseudo name seems to fit. Dallas...
Hey Water Guy, Good of you to give Sonny the storm warning, but I doubt even the tropical storm Debbie could stop him from firing up the "Beast" and getting on the road. Hell, he might even have...
WOW !! Sure wish I could take that trip with them. Oh, wait a minute,..........the Beast is actually hauling Sonny and Corvette Cajun towards our ranch. Man, it sure would be fun to ride along with...
Sonny , my Brother, Although we have spoken on the phone today, I feel compelled to express further support for you and Ryan at this most difficult time. I called our Ms. Jeannie at work, and of...
Sonny, Vent away my good buddy. We both are here to offer a good ear and words of encouragement for you and Lynn, and Ryan. We love you all 3. Dallas & Jeannie...
Goodlife, Extremely well written comments. It was so fun to Skype with you while you were in attendance at GFMPH. You look well my friend. We sure wish we could have made the long trip to LA to join...
