Nameless Was a Tough Guy

[gusgold]

Nameless was ex-military and always talked about his PCa in terms of an enemy that could be defeated. Some have suggested he could no longer face a fatal disease. I don't think that was it at all...actually just the opposite. It was not that he couldn't face Pca, it was what he lost in the battle to stay alive.

The treatment for PCa takes more from a man, on a permanent basis, than just about any disease I can think of. I was a bodybuilder and liked to chase the ladies. I still work out but the results in terms of muscle mass are are way less than before. For treatment I have chosen Xtandi/BAT. I am now in the off phase and my T is in full force, so, now I am thinking about girls again.

I was in the mall the other day looking at all the pretty girls and thinking about what my life was before and how much the treatment of PCa has taken from me. I also think Xtandi causes suicidal thoughts. I have 4 dogs, 2 English Mastiffs, 1 St. Bernard, and 1 Newfoundland, all males. I had to neuter my dogs so I could keep them together. They have done just fine with no loss of muscle mass...my one Mastiff weighs 310 lbs, all muscle. I was thinking if I wasn't here who would take care of them....they give me a reason to live. Funny, they think about females too...when a female dog comes around they all go crazy.

Gus, That is one powerful dog. I rescue greyhounds, and I have two, both females. One is Bonnie, 80 lbs of muscle, and her younger sister Tulip. They both were racers, and they are still fast today, bring rabbits home to the master.

And I thought my Pyreenes/Roty mix was big at 150#. A pipsqueek next to Ben. Good to keep fighting for them.

Hi Gus and all.

I think you are so right. This disease takes a lot out of the men who have it. Also, I think that the decision to end one's life doesn't always have to come from a place of despair but can also come from a place where you really and truly feel that this is enough, that this is a good time to go or whatever. In any case, these decisions should be respected.

I don't find it at all helpful to think in terms of FIGHTING cancer. Rather, if it comes up, I prefer to tell friends and family that I am LIVING with cancer.

DOGS? Geez my wife is 115 lbs (soaking wet) all muscle, tough as nails, cute as a button, smart as pjoshea13, and the love of my life. And I don't have to walk her.

Good Luck and Good Health.
