While a resident in the Kelowna, B.C. Canada Cancer center having a 7 week treatment schedule of boosted radiation for colon cancer I met a woman who had breast cancer. And...it had gone into her 'noids'. Fortunately her Dr. was smart enough to get it all. Her brother had had 'prostrate' cancer. I was so, so tempted to ask if he had to lie down.
This blog is entirely for entertainment purposes. All posts about patients, or my everyday life, or anything else may be fictional, or be my experience, or were submitted by a reader, or any combination of the above. Factual statements may or may not be accurate. I could be making all this up. I may not even be a doctor. The only true statement on here is that I probably drink more Diet Coke than you do. A lot more.

Now that sir, is some hardcore cancer!!!
That's one of the most prosthetic things I've ever heard.
If I ever get cancer, that's the sort I want to get. Just unstrap the ol' prosthesis and send it to the dump and bingo! Cured!
Fake cancer in other words?
"And my uncle had prostitute cancer."
My older friend had athletic cancer. It went into remittance.
C'mon, Grumpy! It could have been prostrate cancer (when have you seen any bowing cancers?)
Totally agree with Anonymous #1. I want to have prosthetic cancer, then I could remove it easily.
At least that kind doesn't tend to metastasize.
Sounds like my patient who had 'romantic arthritis of the hips'!
"you mean prostate cancer."
"whatever."
That reminds me, I have to go get my prosthet checked.

Does prostrate cancer disappear if you stand up?
That is pretty hilarious.
I'm glad you're not my doctor.
If you were, then you'd be overwhelmed....oh wait you are too. Sheesh, why'd you punks go to medical school if you can't handle stress?
Maybe try working with animals, since people are oh-too-stressful for ya
LOL
