I may regret this deal

My wife and I made the following deal: Every time they stick something up my butt, I get $10. I may have priced myself a little low but we agreed that biopsies and seeding count for each chunk/seed so I'll win big if I do seed therapy. The plan is to cultivate my winnings into a new cedar guitar from wood we recently cut.

Good morning from Twickenham, England to EricE and welcome to this mixed bag group! I think we all share a self deprecating sense of humour and yours will help carry you over long musical distances. Share your worries and treatments and fears with us. Would be interesting to hear you play guitar with your bagpipes up your your butt. When I say mixed bag it's because we're all different people and have different stages of this cancer bug. I am 71 and happy. God Bless and k3p your wife smiling, her sense of humour will you through. 10 dollars is too little.

I'd need more than $10 to go for another biopsy. :)

I know how you feel about your “nether regions”!

Since my biopsy and resulting radiation treatment, which kind of affected my bowels and my former virility, and then the urologist did a follow up exam, and told me I have bi lateral hernias (surgery last year for that)

It seems like my problems are all located down there. (Forgot to add colonoscopy in May) and now I’m getting over a ringworm rash down there.

But nothing in the lungs heart liver etc, so life is beautiful.

Thanks Mark and I'm sorry that your nether regions are so prominent in your own life right now. You are spot-on. I'd never spent much time dwelling on my plumbing down there until my diagnosis. Now I feel more like a Prize Heffer. I'm hoping that with some luck and patience, both of us will end up being able to ignore or plumbing once again in the near future.

If nothing else, Prostate Cancer has already declared that it will teach me patience. I'm inclined to accept this lesson if I can.

Cheers,

E

Yes. I heard that in a podcast, relating to nether regions, and just laughed out loud. Hehe
