biologically speaking, over a long enough period of time 100% of men will develope prostate cancer, often when this happens men will die of natural causes or some other disease because the cancer has taken hold so late in life. try to think of it as phil just living a long enough life.

regardless i love phil and i hope he beats it, no matter how long hes been around theres still room for him in life.

my father-in-law has beat prostate cancer twice.

Hopefully it was detected early in Phil and it'll be a quick recovery

Pulling for Phil. He's a smart fellow, seems to have a positive outlook, and the best health care availble will no doubt be pursued for him.

Cancer sucks and my deepest prayers go to Phil and anyone who has to deal with this nasty disease. I HATE cancer, I see way too much of it, way too much.

I'm a stage 4 patient myself, 4th year into it, not even close to a remission and by the grace of the Lord, I'm still living a quality life.

We're all born with cancer cells, but what allows them to become active is still an unanswered mystery.

My prayers are with you still Adrian, I wish you strength my friend. God Bless

Very sorry to hear about this - my heart sank when I saw the title of this thread.

Thoughts and vibes with Phil and his family.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Adrian Garcia and MacGroove (and Phil too).

My daughter is a cancer survivor having had NHL steal the first half of her freshman year in High School from her. Fortunately, she's been in remission for over 5 years and we've dealt with the side effects so far... Acupuncture worked magic on her headaches where tons of drugs couldn't.
