You Can Save The Tadpoles

  How difficult is it to diagnosis, let alone treat, prostate cancer? It's an elusive disease in an inaccessible location, often masquerading as something other than cancer, throwing diagnosticians off track. A changeling, if you will, first showing one side of its deadly face, and often retiring to a less intrusive force. Yet, at other times, it lurks in the darkness and then intrudes on lives with a deadly vengeance. There is no tried or true path, no definitive strategy that can be followed. A system of trials and errors. Patients help others, networks spring forth, to handle the voluminous collection of documentation that goes with dealing with the unknown.

General Cancer Facts

Yet, Prostate Cancer is going to be prevalent in the lives of most men by the time they reach their seventies. Are there ways to prevent it? Nothing definite yet but there is promise of food inhibitors which seem to indicate that there are possibilities in lessening the odds of its occurrence. What of exercise, lifestyles, genetic backgrounds, regional influences? All are factors and none absolutely prevent it, as seem the case of most cancers. It cuts through economic status, race, creed, and nationality.

Why are we here? To help folks find their way to a decision, through information guidelines, links, and forums, to treatment. Each website, each program that opens a new door, adds a voice to the choir, and might provide a clue down the road to help find a cure – or even an effective diagnostic test. So much is in question and so few definite answers are available.

Help us get the word out.
