What brings you to the New Prostate Cancer InfoLink social network?: A friend

At 11:43am on September 9th, 2008, Angela Jenkins said…: Great! I'll e-mail you the specifics. See you on the 25th.

At 12:28am on September 9th, 2008, Angela Jenkins said…: Margaret - haven't heard from you in a while. How are things going? How is Al doing?

At 1:27am on August 13th, 2008, Angela Jenkins said…: Margaret - did Al find a support group in the area? If not, let me know.

At 7:23pm on July 31st, 2008, Al Sylvia said…: OMG...I posted on the 15th that the results were good. I must have done something wrong. No cancer cells evident. On the scale it was the lowest they can calibrate. Al is doing much better.

At 11:28pm on July 28th, 2008, Angela Jenkins said…: Margaret - didn't hear back from you after the 7/14 results. What was the PSA? How are you guys? Is Al doing better?

At 11:03am on July 14th, 2008, Angela Jenkins said…: Margaret - just checking on you guys. How's Al doing? Keep me updated.

At 5:52pm on June 30th, 2008, Al Sylvia said…: Thanks...we'll hang in and be patient.

At 10:31am on June 30th, 2008, Angela Jenkins said…: Don't know about a "Da Vinci" group, but the surgery group and ED group on this network will be a great source of information and support right now. You can start a discussion to ask any questions you want and others will respond. I can tell you that Jimmy was about 80% (4-5 pads a day) continent at 1 month. By 6 weeks, he was nearly 100% continent. He still has some problems if he lifts something heavy, etc, but otherwise does well. It can be very discouraging, but it definitely helps to talk with others. If he would like to talk to Jimmy directly or meet him, just let me know and we'll put them in touch. The greatest battle we face with PC sometimes, is the mental anguish. He is healing every day, maybe not with strides, but little by little. Be patient - it will get better. Stay in touch! AJ
