In 2007 I lost my father to prostate cancer. He was 68 years old. He had 8 children, but sadly my children did not get the chance to meet him. What a loss for all of us. This year 300,000 men in the United States will be diagnosed with prostate cancer - that is 821 men a day. 35,000 will die from the disease, that is almost 100 men a day. Your father, brother, son has a 1 in 8 chance of developing prostate cancer in their lifetime. Since my father died there have been so many advanced in prostate cancer testing and treatment. Had such treatments been available when he was diagnosed, he would have met my children.
