I saw this on the Ellen Show today and it looks like it's worth checking out. It's a project by actor Sterling K Brown and illuminates the triumphs and challenges of life after a cancer diagnosis. If you scroll below the first episode there is more to see with links to other information and stories at very bottom. It's not only prostate cancer but seems like we can all relate.

Thanks for posting....Indeed, it may not all be prostate cancer, but is anyone's reaction different when you first heard that you have cancer? The anxiety.....fear......disbelief....and later....anger....and more....no matter the type, it is an emotional rollercoaster...

Living with cancer.

So this reporter is in Israel at the Wailing Wall.

He sees an elderly Rabbi praying at the the Wailing wall.

He goes over to the Rabbi and asks "how long have you been praying at the Wailing Wall?

The Rabbi responds "every day for about 60 years".

So he then asks the Rabbi, "with all that praying for so many years, do you think there will ever be a cure for cancer?"

The Rabbi responds "Cure? it's like talking to a wall".

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.
