This year, some will be diagnosed
with PROSTATE CANCER. I SHOULD KNOW...





I WAS ONE OF THEM. I GOT THE NEWS ON JANUARY 10, 1997.

My doctors had been giving me the PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) test for a number of years during my routine physical check-ups. It is like a blood test, and through this test, doctors are able to determine the possibilities that cancer might exist in the prostate.

I can't stress enough the importance of PSA testing. Doctors can catch eight of ten cancers before they spread beyond the prostate. And there is some pretty good news — nine out of ten cancers caught before they spread can be cured.

I consider myself lucky that the PSA test uncovered my prostate cancer in time to save my life. I am back out playing golf every day, and nothing could make me happier. I would like to give you a tip, not about golf, but about life: If you want to do something great for your family, get your PSA test.
