More on Prostate Cancer

This SMH article adds to the confusion about Prostate Cancer.  It makes sense to me, but perhaps it is just my aversion to being diagnosed with Prostate Cancer.  Certainly, having read this article, and also, when I heard Professor Coates statement years ago, I am not inclined to be screened for Prostate Cancer unless I have symptoms.  But, I do wonder if I am making the right choice.

A confronting story!

Husband sacrifices sex to stay alive prostate cancer

This really is a confronting thought.  Thinking rationally, there should be no question of not making the choice this man has, but for me, it is hard to imagine it not being an agonisingly difficult decision to make.  No matter how much I acknowledge that there is far more to life than sex, and that there would clearly be plenty of things in life to enjoy without sex, it still seems excrutiatingly difficult  to even contemplate!

I remember reading an article about this a few months ago.  The article focussed on the injustice to the zabaleen, having their pigs slaughtered, and the belief of many that this was just an excuse to make life difficult for them.  It seems they have reaped the consequences of their injustice.
