Prostate Cancer Surgery and Incontinence

It's prostate cancer awareness month in the US, and as many men know, the prostate gland can create a lot of different bladder issues. And if a prostatectomy happens due to cancer, incontinence is often a part of life after the surgery. Sometimes the incontinence lasts just a few months, sometimes longer. I am sharing a link to a story by a man who had prostate cancer and lived with incontinence after his surgery. This story comes from Australia. And it's a good story!!
