Why you need to get the PSA test

Why should you or someone you know get their PSA tested?  Go to the link below to know why (Life).  This is why I listened to my mom, God bless her, she always told us boys to get our PSA tested whenever we had our blood tested.

I may not have done everything that my mom told me to do, ok, I didn't do a lot of things my mom told me but getting my PSA tested was one thing that I did, faithfully.  And it may have saved my life.  Shane, who is with me this week in OKC, noticed this TV news article on NBC news as we were drinking our evening beer in the lobby of Staybridge Suites.  I have watched it and want to pass it along to you now:

PSA Test, Hell Yes

You or someone you love or know does not want Advanced Prostate Cancer.  Recently some reports stated that doctors were ordering too many PSA tests, I DON'T THINK SO!

My stage of prostate cancer was a T1C and my gleason score was a 3 + 3 = 6.  Very early stage, catching this cancer or any cancer early is very important.  Catching prostate cancer early almost has a 100% survival rate. (See the link)

I'll take my chances on the PSA test and you should too.  I like those odds, almost 100% is pretty darn good.

Tomorrow, another graduation, and Shane has stated he will write the graduation blog for me.
