I am from Philippines, my father was diagnosed with prostate cancer. The doctor’s advice is to do surgical procedure wherein they have to remove the testicles/scrotum of my dad. Isn’t he suppose to remove the prostate instead of removing the testicles/scrotum? Once the testicles are removed, what are the chances of survival if his prostate wont be removed?

My dad in 2004, 5 days before he died. He was on hospice care. He was diagnosed on Father’s Day, 2004, with lung cancer. he was a lifetime smoker, but quit in 1992. DR said if he had quit long before (or never started)…he would be here today…My dad was a talented writer and news broadcaster. He was very silly, sometimes eccentric, as you will see…We miss you, Dad… ANYONE that considers smoking…needs to know that the chance of being diagnosed and then dying of lung cancer is a strong possibility. Please, I don’t want anyone to go through the fear,frustration, and pain that my dad went through.,.not to mention the family having to WATCH him go through it. We stood by helplessly as he tried to “catch” his breath, couldn’t swallow because the radiation made his throat sore, coughed up blood, and later heard the imfamous “death rattle” as he tried to breathe. The waiting was the worst…Please , see video #2 for additional comments. SEMPER FI!

www.nucleusinc.com Millions of people die each year from smoking. This 3D medical animation is part of an anti-smoking campaign ad, showing how smoking causes normal alveolar sacs to become enlarged and thinned over time from emphysema. Because the alveoli cannot contract, air is trapped in the lungs and the smoker cannot breathe out effectively.

Lilo Lu’s Testimonial on Coriolus versicolor and her Lung cancer August 28, 2010, 07:43 AM

My husband will be 30 soon and I wonder when he should start psa screening for prostate cancer. His father, paternal grandfather, and paternal uncle all had/have prostate cancer. His father was diagnosed at age 43 but it appears to be out of remission now after 10 years. I’ve read the recommended age is 45 or 50 yrs but if my father-in-law waited to 45 he’d be dead by now. So if you have a strong family history, what’s the best time to start?
