A soldier who just lost his best friend is being comforted by another while nearby, a corpsman fills out death certificates. (National Archives - photo info)     In every struggle,     the only ones who can truly grasp     your fear,     your pain,     your grief,     and your stamina     that may sometimes fail     are those who share     the battlefield with you.     It is no different when the enemy is     prostate cancer     and the fight is for     your integrity as a man     as well as your life. This 1950 photo is us today, we men with prostate cancer. We are hurt and confused but there are some others who know. Don't be ashamed to hurt. The wound is deep. But it need not be fatal. Nor are you alone. There are many of us who know the feeling and some of us who want to help the rest. That is the basic message of Phoenix5. Your fellow in this struggle, Robert Young (robert@phoenix5.org) Webmaster Phoenix5 Diagnosed 11/23/99, PSA 1000+, Stage M1c Go to Main Menu main menu   -   articles   -   prostate   -   stories   -   sexuality   -   resources   -   glossary   -   search The information at this site is provided for educational purposes only and does not replace or amend professional medical advice.
