you are such a likable guy with that big infectious smile that influences everyone around you. So upbeat and making so much of your time. A whole lot of people on this group , and many other places, want to see those numbers fall buddy … they are so strongly on your side. Good for you and keep on keeping on, your heartwarming lifestyle - QOL posts are such a valuable contribution for the rest of us croakers . The everyday human side of things counts for a lot.

Awww, Mahalo my Bruddak Kal for thatπŸ’™.

My persona has been honed over 40 years as a DDS. I gotta be friendly, engaging, and a lil bit silly to assuage the pts anxiety. That really goes far in establishing a wonderful chairside relationship.

So, with #stageivpca, I've just transferred the dental persona to my PCa persona, but I've been pretty fun, gregarious, engaging for a while probs since college.

Plus. being in a field in which the majority of my staff and pts are female really got my social skills boosted. I discovered that I was f'in charming sometimes (LoL)

I'm Blessed that folks here and elsewhere are rooting for me and for the #s to drop.

Much LOVE to y'all for the Support

Ya know I'm gonna keep on keepin on til I can't, that's my Nature (driven AZN thingie)

QoL benefits all of us, cept for those grumpy croakers esp the racists Haha

I've stated before that if I did what I was supposed to do with a 4.7 PSA in 2010, that I would never have met the Wonderful people here on HU, at ZERO, at Kaiser, at AIS onco/radiation, I would never have done 30 marathons with back bibs exhorting men to get checked. Never woulda made Ripples or Spread Aloha.

My Life is much better with y'all in itπŸ’™.

Me ke Aloha Pumehana with Warm Love

Much Love Bruddah Kal

Mahalo, scaniexty was at the max when it hit 34, but now a descent WooHoo. Hmmm, 67 yrs old next year and it'll be my 10th year with #stageivpca and 25th year of this dental office - sounds like I need to plan a kick*ss party.

I've got a Crazy idea for 2024🀣, to do the Entire Camino Frances after I did 5 days in 2019 spanishforcamino.com/2019/0...

Great news, celebrate for sure. Minor note given some G8 that is your score. The G7 is meaningless.

Mahalo, and Yea, doing Happy DanceπŸ˜†

39 chemos, 28 IMRTS and 8 1/2 years of 3 month Lupron prolly altered the PCa composition. Just want at least PSA biomarker to show some success

Just received a Signatera result with 0.08 ctDNA mean tumor molecules (MtM)/ml indicating a Low Positive according to my RO
