P.S. Don't know why, but links don't show up on your page. Tried to put it in so you could click on it, but it won't show up.

Hi David...just found your video. The very best to you and thanks for sharing. Since my diagnosis I have preached to my two brothers the need for PSA tests

David - I was thinking about you today. How are you doing? We haven't heard from you in a while. Have you finished your chemo? Hope you had a wonderful holiday with your family. jKeep us updated on how you are. We care.

The problem is a little necrosis in jaw after three years treatment. But don´t worry, not many people it´s affected. Ask your doctor and perhaps you could do a preventive treatment. Do you have pain? My principal fear is pain and fracture in bones.
