As I have said (many times) before, I don’t really like him, BUT when it comes to matters prostate or cancer all of us men need to stand shoulder-to-shoulder and support each other. I don’t consider him my King, but in the end, he is man, my age — & I sure would be unhappy if/when told I have cancer.

I feel particularly BAD because I think he might have BLADDER CANCER. All cancers are unpleasant and bad, BUT bladder cancer sucks. Yes, I have known some with it.

I also, has previously, stated know TOO MUCH about matters prostate. I spent a lot of time & effort educating myself on it — just to be on the safe side (& I have had MY SHARE of prostate issues).

WHEN they say they found the cancer while operating for his enlarged prostate one has to suspect BLADDER. The prostate is INSIDE the bladder. So, surgeons get a real good look at the bladder when they go looking for your prostate.

PLUS, as you can see from the second image, I am NOT the only one who is thinking along these lines. Yes, it could be lymph node cancer. IF it was, I think, he would have told us.

Bladder cancer is EMBARRASSING to talk about! The possible CURES are even WORSE — & I won’t even mention PIGS!


I Am, Alas, With Much Regret, Giving Up Hot Dogs, Sausages & Ham (& Not Just For ‘Lent’, But For Good (In Every Sense)).

Eight long years ago I drastically cut back on carbs.

2.5-years ago, I cut back further. I rarely cheated BUT I cut out cheating more or less all together.

Now I am going to forsake processed meats.

I don’t have to.

But, I want to. Precautionary … preventive.

I just had my annual physical … with comprehensive blood work. SMILE. I, luckily, DON’T have to change anything. SMILE. I am good.

But, I am I.

Complacency is not in my genes or jeans.

I like to be ahead of the game.

For the last 30 years, if not more, I have eaten sausages, hot dogs or hams near daily. Most days at multiple times.

I LOVE sausages. I love hot dogs.

I am partial to most things from pigs. I joke that I eat about 2 full adult pigs a month.

But, no more. Giving up on processed meats.

I do have limits though. I will NOT give up sex, cheese, red wine or meat. Everything else is negotiable.

I will let you know IF I change my mind. But, don’t hold your breath.
