( I’m not so good at Rhyming)

But my PSA is climbing ,

HealthUnlocked and MaleCare

Make a new post – Do I Dare?

R.A.L.P. - I got 5 cuts

Now ADT, “gyneco..” what?

Denied insurance now more debts

Lupron with some Casodex .,

Lost my T, got hot flashes

Radiation gave me rashes,

P.S.M.A. another scan

Time to make a new game plan,

Geno types and hidden mets

My muscles can no longer flex,

A phase 3 trial, a new study

For my small brain it all seems muddy,

So Lift more weights, go for a hike

Then swim some laps, and ride my bike

I'm glad you're here to help me through

This group rocks, this is true.

Thanks for taking the time,

To knock out a rhyme.

It was better than fine,

I found it sublime.

Hope your hidden mets are benign.

You captured the poignancy of dealing with your cancer --- And, the side effects of the treatments, without bogging down in negativity. I’m glad that you are here to help me as well.

Thank you for your words so fine,

But the best guidance is divine.

Running some trails, or hiking with a pack:

The best way for me to get a clear head back.

Love the trail runs. Doing a 10K in Washington Puyallup valley tomorrow. Would love to hike more but inexperienced except the traditional day hike.
