Forgot to mention that. And we start and end regular season against the BoSox.
Was down at the parade, magical and overdue by NYY standards.
Hope you're doing well. I am feeling fit and fine, thank God.
Best,
Steve
We are in a great spot now...huge win last night, respect to the Phils but momentum and CCS on the Yanks side.

Fitting we have to go thru the defending champs and all the more satisfying when accomplished. GO YANKS!

Be well...keep the faith.

Yeah, beautiful place for sure. No, we did not see the fake whale. That's a hoot. Hang in there....
Hoping for a bottom of the ninth recovery right now!

I know there are guys on this site that are struggling with ED and other issues. My circumstances - I had the surgery a year ago May. I was gleason 3+4, T2c stage upon biopsy and luckily, that's where I ended up post surgery too. In my particular case, I have had no problem with ED. As for the incontinence, it's been minimal. Sometimes when I cough or laugh, I can feel a drip escape. The reason I am telling you this that the surgery can go well.
For me, the issue with having a treatment other than surgery is the "not knowing" whether things are really worse than the biopsy reveals. There are a number of people on this site that had a biopsy of gleason 6 or 7 and came out of the surgery regraded at 8 or 9. If they did radiation or seeds, they would not have known that. I guess everyone has to make his own decision but the upstaging is a real risk.
