175: Frank’s Prostate cancer Journey - Team work/support is the key

175: Frank’s Prostate cancer Journey - Team work/support is the key

Today we speak with Frank, who was 49 when he was diagnosed with prostate cancer. He is now 16 months post-op and has had an unremarkable healing journey. He has no incontinence, and his erectile function has returned. It hasn’t all been plain sailing as you will hear, but with ‘stickability’ following the rehab roadmap he is back on track and now the surgery feels like a blip on the horizon.

Frank talks about how he now wants to talk about his journey with others for two reasons:

1. To help other men in the same situation and,

2. He finds it therapeutic to talk about what he has been through.

I sincerely hope that you listeners will enjoy this conversation as much as I did and that it gives men soon to go through this journey hope.
