X-rays
It has been decided that I may be a candidate for stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT).

As it stands
Greetings, some of you may remember me, but I'm not a frequent poster. I've been in the PC business since 2007, having fought it with radiation, surgery, ADT, and currently in a clinical trial for nanoparticle therapy. I've been at the therapy for 3 months with little to no side effects. Unfortunately

The Sword of Damocles
I don't know how familiar you are with this story so I'll give you a quick run down. The story goes; Damocles was a servant of King Dionysius, a tyrant at the time. One day Damocles exclaimed to the king, that as he had such power and fortune, his life must be easy and wonderful, how fortuitous. So
