Dealing with a prostate cancer diagnosis and the special circumstances surrounding a prostate cancer diagnosis can be scary for patients, family members or friends.
You are not alone if you have prostate cancer. One out of six men (1 out of 4 African American men) will have prostate cancer in their lifetime and 230,000 men a year are diagnosed with Prostate Cancer.
