Default hi chatanooga

this is not as fun a topic as decorating...i am sorry about your friend. one good thing about getting older is that our cells do not multiply as fast and sometimes prostate cancer in an older gentleman grows so slowly as to not be life threatening...on the other hand, if his doctor says he must do something about it, i am of the slightly educated opinion that the seeding procedure is a good substitute for surgery. a friend of mine had radiation which hit the wrong area and caused him more harm than the cancer itself...so i hope he will consult a few specialists and weigh all his options.
