Previous Story Prostate Cancer Part II Gerry Post/Prostate Cancer patient - "Men just don't talk about those things. and when I was first diagnosed I didn't want anyone to know." 65-year-old Gerry Post had the tell-tale signs. He even had an ominous dream. But it wasn't until he got his first PSA test in four years that he knew for sure. He had prostate cancer. Gerry Post - "It takes a while to register. I thought here goes my old dream of being shot by a jealous husband at the age of 98." It's not unusual for Gerry to see humor in any situation. He's a cartoonist by trade. One of his latest works pokes fun at the new therapy Gerry used to attack his cancer -- radioactive seeds. Gerry - "I decided surgery was too invasive, too many side effects for me." Dr. Duke Bahn/Crittenton Hospital - "It is an outpatient technique. People are back to work within a week." The treatment, called Brachytherapy, involves the implantation of tiny radioactive pellets directly into the tumor. This is the room where the radioactive isotope pellets are kept. They're much smaller than a grain of rice. They're radioactive when placed in the prostate and become completely inert in two years. Dr. Bahn - "It's a very appealing concept because we can deliver a high-dose directly to the tumor, and spare the nearby organs." After eight weeks, Gerry feels almost back to normal. And he's spreading the word to other men. Gerry - "This is real life and this is a life-threatening situation. Why not talk about it." Gerry - "Have it checked and don't be afraid to talk about it."
