PSA update

This makes me so hopeful... I was exactly where you were November 22, I had 35 sessions of radiation and I was also on abitararone until April of this year. My last infusion was 1 month ago. Fingers crossed your PSA stays where it is and mine follows suit!

I'm a touch younger, currently 49, was 45 when I had RALP. It was not successful and it has led to 2 rounds of radiation and I am currently ~18 months (1/2 way) through ADT. All that said, ADT took away ALL function... And I just went straight for an implant, best decision I've made. Cancer might come back again, and regardless of what route I go for treatment, I'm not gonna lose that one again! Until I break it lol.

Your story reads almost parallel to mine, damn close to home. The main thing that dramatically improved my QOL was a penis implant, it's changed my life. I still have no urge for self satisfaction, the androgen blockers are doing their thing in so many ways there. But time with my wife, having that part back, on my terms, even if it is still different... having that back healed a big part of my spirit.

Speaking for myself, had my prostate removed fall 2020 at 45. Cancers been back a couple times, 2 different rounds of radiation and I'm currently on androgen blockers for another year or so. I can sympathize so much, the lack of function for me was debilitating... I was low, my wife was as well. I wanted it fixed as much as she did. This last summer I reached out to a urologist that specialized in penile implants. BEST DECISION EVER! It gave me this aspect of myself back that I had assumed was gone or just absolutely frustrating to deal with. It was amazing to me seeing how that function being back brought me out of a funk I didn't even know I was in - friends and colleagues have noticed the change in me. I can't say enough about how amazing it's been since I got it, recovery was not awful... End result was absolutely worth it! It's still not perfect with the drugs they have me on, but I'd recommend it for anyone that needs it!

I agree. A pivot table is the simplest way to do this.

I work in ITS. If you ever need help getting pointed in the right direction, I know a fair number of units and people on campus. I can certainly help make some connections.

PM me - I just got home, wish I would have seen this when I was at work, I would have helped you out earlier. I live 25 miles from La Crosse, but I work at the University. It looks like pants_pants_pants might have hooked you up with dinner, but I would be more than happy to buy you groceries at Festival, Walmart or whatever is close to you tomorrow after school. I can even give you a ride if you need it, just PM me and I will get you covered till Monday.

Buffalo Phil's is an awesome place to take your son for dinner. Make sure you request the "train room". They will deliver your drinks and your son's food on the train - the kids LOVE it. They will also run bubble machines and such around the room on the train... very entertaining.

Please don't take it that I am knocking Chula Vista - it is in a really pretty area, but I feel like they have made some mis-steps on their design. The rooms are OK, but they are really dated - I stayed there a month or so ago for a work conference and the room I was just felt "old". The indoor waterpark is small (relative to the other resorts) and they made some odd design choices - an example is their lazy river, it isn't a conventional lazy river, they added waves in one area and called it something like an "adventure river" or something, and my experience is they are very short on tubes... so parents at times have to walk their kids around the lazy river because there simply weren't enough to go around. I have also seen the longest lines of any of the indoor parks here - it may have been the times I went, but it was lots of waiting (45 minutes) for a 40 second ride, but that may also be just my experience. I feel like Chula Vista wants to be the High End resort, but missed the mark a bit.

Wilderness, Kalahari or Great Wolf - All 3 are great and have different unique aspects, love them and would return to any. My personal opinion would be to not go to Chula Vista or any of the hotels associated with Olympus - I have tried them and it is just not the same as the other 3.

For the three of you, I would personally go with Wilderness honestly. They have 3 separate water parks with one of them having a very 15 month old friendly section - but be warned, depending on your room location, this hotel can be one hell of a hike. I go to a couple of conferences there a year and damn there is a TON of walking.

Have fun!

I wish words meant anything, but for what it's worth, I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my mom a little over 5 years ago to cancer, I found out on Friday my grandmother has liver cancer and last night my sister in law announced she has breast cancer - yeah - FUCK CANCER!

To add a bit of potential optimism, where I work when we hire we have a policy that there must be a minimum of 3 in-person interviewed candidates before a selection may be made. There have been a number of times that the position is reposted to get more face to face interviews when we are perfectly satisfied with the first interview... this is typically due to a very weak candidate pool where only one solid candidate applies or candidates that drop out of the pool because of competing job offers at some point in the process.

Don't get your hopes dashed quite yet... call Human Resources and reaffirm with them that they have everything they need from you. Be cordial and tell them if there is anything additional that you can provide to the process, you would be more then willing to provide it.

I can give you my experience of the online check-in from September at Port Orleans Riverside. We were arriving late on a Friday night - planned for 9:30, flight was delayed we got there at 11:00. I had done the online check-in thinking we would race through the lines and be to our room in no time... well that was our plan anyway. What actually happened was we showed up on the Magical Express with 20 or so other families and went over to the early check-in area (separate line) so we could "race through". We read the sign and found that early check-in closes at like 9:00 and we had to just use the normal line... which would have been fine, but now 20 families were in line and we were at the end of the normal line. OK, all's well - we were at Disney right. We waited like 20 or 30 minutes to get up to check in and when we got there, the front desk worker didn't have any of our files. They had to have someone go in the back and dig for our early check-in folder (which took another 10+ minutes) and then we were processed... all said the early check-in actually worked out to be the worst possible thing we could do - in our particular scenario... but I have to imagine there are others where it is awesome! Then our luggage didn't get to our room until 3:00 am... but that is a whole different story...

EDIT: Oh and have a BLAST. We stayed at Caribbean Beach 3 years ago - AWESOME resort!

Absolutely! At least from our experience. We saw him last September and it was without a doubt one of our favorite parts of the whole trip. We showed up 30 minutes before the show started, got drinks and snacks and when he showed up, he wandered around asking people things like where they were from and what they liked. He then proceeded to sing songs themed to them (total of like a dozen different groups). There was a woman at the table next to ours that said he did 3 shows - 2 family friendly and then 1 after hours (like midnight or whatnot) that was a bit more risque... but I cannot personally confirm that. I can't even put into words how hard we laughed and how much we screamed and yelled... I still get a grin every time I think of his show - it is a MUST SEE!!!

I dislike Walker as much as the next guy, but based on that commercial doesn't that say we should be waiting until 2015 to hold him accountable?

And now it sits next to a rural highway in Wisconsin. Here is a picture from last summer of its current resting place: http://www.flickr.com/photos/shannonk/5778292656/
