NEW for 2023: If you are wondering what could happen a full decade after proton therapy for prostate cancer, you will find insight and comfort in the second book from the author, a ten-year survivor. In an easy-to-read conversational style, Ron Nelson holds back nothing in answering the questions he is most often asked: Are you completely cured? Do you have side effects? Do you fear a recurrence? With 20-20 hindsight, what lessons were learned? If you could go back in time, would you choose the same treatment? How should a newbie decide what to do? What are the risks? What are the common mistakes newbies make? In great detail, Ron answers all of these questions, defines "The Newbie Trap, and provides a 9-step "Newbie-Do" list to guide you to the finish line. To quote Ron from the first chapter, " … this book is about me, but it’s not a report on every aspect of my past decade of life. … I focus here on my health and the insights I’ve had about how we men think and feel once we’ve been diagnosed with prostate cancer, survive it, and move forward in life. We do change. All cancer survivors do. I’ve certainly changed. And life after a prostate cancer diagnosis is never the same as before. Not physically, nor mentally." Most of Ron's book is intended to help prostate cancer newbies understand and address the unique challenges they face. Additional material includes a special section for his fellow proton ambassadors, his ten-year PSA chart, and the surprising inside stories of how and why he wrote this book and his previous one. Finally, you can enjoy the included reprints of five articles Ron wrote for The After Proton Blog, selected as his favorites. Staying in touch with his proton brothers has been an important part of Ron Nelson's post-proton journey, and his desire to nurture these unique connections continues. At the end of the book you will find his email address and a sincere invitation to contact him to discuss what he understands is a very personal matter.
