Brent,
"Sorry" about your Dad doesn't begin to cover it.
For everyone else I have 4 comments:
1) Guys, get your "PSA" (Prostate Specific Antigen) checked regularly after the age of 40(?). (It is done as part of your annual physical blood test.)
2) Viet Nam Vets have a statistically significant greater risk of prostate cancer. Be
attentive!
3) If you or someone you know has prostate cancer I highly recommend the book "Dr. Patrick Walsh's Guide to Surviving Prostate Cancer". Educate yourself as to options.
4) EARLY DETECTION IS THE KEY TO SURVIVING!

....been there, done that......

John
