Forum: Update on Webinar and Al Topic: Update from Al (April 26, 2016) --------------------------------------- BPAAdmin: Hi, everyone, My doctor today gave me the path report from last week's surgery, and I have enough information to now talk about my medical problem. I was diagnosed with prostate cancer several weeks ago, and had a radical prostatectomy last week. Jerry Brown, John Kerry, and Colin Powell also have prostate cancer and appear to be doing well. I am doing much better than just a few days ago, and I am hoping that the surgery will be a cure. With prostate cancer, there is a high recurrence rate, but the cancer grows slowly so even if it comes back, I expect to live many more years. Thank you for your patience and support. Al bpafan66: Hi, Al Thanks for sharing! My father about 7 years ago had a radical prostatectomy, and charged through his 70s, and is heading towards his 80s! Great to hear you're doing much better. I have 100% confidence that you will have a health filled and full recovery. Derek Uweri: Hi Al, my dad also was diagnosed with prostrate about 5 years ago.
