Ray has ask me to post this message for him. It will also be on his website. It was a hard decision for him to make but the passing of Alvin Stardust has made him see he should be speaking out. After the tragic death of Alvin Stardust and the brave response to Prostate Awareness by his widow, Iris, in following up on what Alvin had intended to say about the disease, I have decided to help in some small way. I was diagnosed in September 2013 with prostate cancer. My cancer was in-operable but I have a fantastic doctor who immediately started me on a new treatment that has had 90% success rate. The cancer is being held in remission but Ill be receiving this treatment for the rest of my life. I have four close friends who have all endured some kind of surgery or treatment for this cancer and all are doing well. While I dont like to talk publicly about my health problems, after Alvins death, I decided it was time I spoke out. A cancer diagnosis can shake your world and your familys but if caught in time it can be cured or held in remission. I urge all males to get tested NOW. Dont put it off by thinking it wont happen to me. It needs to be caught early. Its only a blood test - a few minutes out your day to save yourself from this disease. Love and God Bless, Ray
