We should all be very grateful to him for sharing his knowledge and wisdom and guidance for those who have questions about their cancer diagnosis and treatment. Where he came from and why he is so generous is something we'll never know. God bless you, man.

Totally agree! I stopped reading another site because of all the crazy theories with no basis in science. Tall does a great job of keeping those off this site and gives straight up science based input.

Thank you so much!!!!

I couldn’t agree more with all the accolades presented here for Tall_Allen. He has provided me with his thoughts and information and I appreciate so much what he has to say and how he says it that I often read posts and his responses to issues that don’t directly concern my issues. I hope you feel proud and very good about all the people you help in the site.

Thanks Tall Allen for your help in getting us informed about PCa when we needed. You are such a nice man to all of us. All your responses are given promptly.

The journey we have been taking has been a difficult one, not knowing when this journey will end. We are just buying time to prolong our lives as we don’t expect there will be any cure at all. However, to some, there might be a total cure.

As for me, this treatment isn’t easy. But I am optimistic about it in that Jesus Christ is an answer to all my worries. He will surely take care of me no matter what happens to me.

Thanks again Allen. God bless you!

I cant even describe how much TA's help was to me back when i was trying to figure out what to do re treatment types. I would have been lost without his candid, honest, whether you like it or not opinions about my case and situation. In the end I decided on my course of treatment...SBRT...based primarily on his input and it turned out to be the best thing for me up to this day. Regardless of what my future holds I will never forget how much TA helped me through that period. You the man, TA! God bless you.

Ditto! To every reply here...except for maybe j-o-h-n...(love you j-o-h-n!). TA has been such a trusted source of information and knowledge. His quick responses have been so valuable as we try to navigate through treatment decisions. Certainly helps to have a better understanding before we meet with our medical teams to be able to ask the right questions. He's helped me several times.

Grateful for you Tall Allen. Grateful for every member here. The ones that share their treatment details, side effects and what's helped them, their humor (you know who you are), their QOL posts that help us to pay attention to things that bring joy. The ones that bring our attention to new research. The ones that cheer you on and bring you hope. The ones that honor our fellow members that have passed. Grateful for this community.

I rarely ever post publicly on this forum, but I have to say that I am eternally grateful for all of the sound and science-backed knowledge that Tall Allen contributes consistently here. We are so very fortunate to have such a genuinely caring individual who willingly shares his findings, provides direction and clarification to those of us who are lost in the vast amount of information floating around.
