Check out this group's What Is It Like To Have Cancer guide, where people with this experience share their tips and hints.
Here are a few tips...
- Prostate radiation goes well--29 days to go..The ESRD lasts a-whole lot longer--Peace to all
- Having prostrate cancer is a piece-o-cake to having ESRD. I got both--Be tough people there is a light at the end of the treatment--Strength in the mind is my way--Try New Age music to relax and meditate and simple prayers for others---

Wikipedia: Cancer
Cancer /ˈkænsə(r)/ ( listen) (medical term: malignant neoplasm) is a class of diseases in which a group of cells display uncontrolled growth (division beyond the normal limits), invasion (intrusion on and destruction of adjacent tissues), and sometimes metastasis (spread to other locations in the body via lymph or blood). These three malignant properties of cancers differentiate them from benign tumors, which are self-limited, and do not invade or metastasize. Most cancers form a tumor but some, like leukemia, do not. The branch of medicine concerned with the study, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of cancer is oncology.
