Dad’s Prostate Update

Dad’s surgery is done and everything went well. He called me DURING the surgery !!!! to let me know how it was going !!!! He went with spinal anesthesia and was able to watch the whole thing. Hopefully he won’t give me “blow by blow” on it!!! :) You don’t know they removed part of his prostate. I guess he didn’t tell you because he didn’t want to say prostate to you. But I don’t want to hear about that haha !!!!

Between Two Metal Plates

Calling the doctor has always been a pain. Then when you finally get through she is scheduling appts for at least 4-6 weeks in advance. I just scheduled my first mammo, I do not look forward to that event. I have heard it is painful. The smaller the breast, the more painful as they try to squeeze it between two metal plates. A test designed by men i am sure. Funny how the test for prostrate cancer does not involve squeezing the testicles between two metal plates.



Love, Mom
