Dad went up to the UW doc today (via public transportation, but I'll let him tell you about that). Ever since his cancer has come back this third time, he has to get blood work and see his doc every three months. They are monitoring his PSA because when it reaches a certain point, it will be time for treatment.
They say at this point because he has had surgery the first time and radiation the second time, the cancer is pretty much back to stay (unless they find some fabulous new treatment in research that will get rid of the prostate cancer)
But the GOOD news is that his PSA went down this visit! Of course it sometimes can and will fluctuate, but I like to think that it is because of all the prayers that are out there for him.
So, please thank you for your prayers so far and please continue to keep my dad in your prayers.
