September, Do You Remember...
Since we are part of the better age...and you are reading this because of prostate cancer, this title should be somewhat familiar.
Now that we are bringing awareness to others, we need to focus on healing. The healing is the hardest part of this damn process. It is an emotional roller coaster of mediocre highs and somethimes extremely low lows. The stress that it brings to not only myself, but to those that I love is sometimes unbearable. The fear and unknown comes out as meanness many times. I sometimes feel like an old man yelling at the litlle kids in the neighborhood to get off my damn grass. Or like Clint Eastwood in "Trouble With the Curve". He plays an aging baseball scout who does not want to face his age and pushes his daughter away as she tries to help. I know that I am sometimes that curmuggeon old guy, but I don't want to be him. I want to be happy that I beat this Damn thing. It is gone and PSA levels are near nil, but I am still pissed that I cannot be normal again. I know I need to find the new normal and give up on the old normal, but that is not an easy task for me I enjoyed the old normal and was very comfortable in that normal.
I guess I need to go back in time (another movie reference to get me back to the 80's for another reference. Yup, going to put this earworm out there. Once you read on and look at the album cover, it will be in your head for the day! Just keep saying "Don't Worry, Be Happy"
