Quotes

Surgeons, too, are hyping the fear factor. Roger Kirby, the lead surgeon on this prostate cancer removal, reportedly told the Sunday Times, "...knowing you are a carrier [of the BRCA2 gene] is like having the swordsword of Damocles hanging over you. You are living in a state of constant fear. I am sure more male BRCA carriers will now follow suit [with surgical removal]."
"At this point I could continue in remission and wait to see if I'd relapse and need more chemo or I could see if I was eligible for a stem cell transplant. A stem cell transplant seemed, while highly risky, a better option for long-term survival. That is quite a story in and of itself. "
