Dear friends,

A 54 year old Pawtucket friend of mine noticed several years ago he had difficulty urinating.  My friend, as do most other males such as I, chose not to visit a doctor.  When he finally did, the doctor diagnosed the illness as prostate cancer that spread throughout  his body.  He is now suffering from stage four of bone cancer.

Neighbors, please visit your doctor once every six months for blood tests for prostate cancer and other possible cancers.  Colon cancer screeenings should be done every year for men after the age of 30.  If one is a carrier, the carrier and his children should be checked every year after age 25.

Please do not gamble on your health.

Peace,

Jim

Good idea to always have the regular checkups...We all get older and the tuneups are helpful to a safer life to enjoy with all..
