Living with stage four Prostate Cancer
Великобритания
Добавлен 23 дек 2021
Hi, my name is Woody, on Sept 15th 2021 I was given the news that I have Advanced Metastatic Prostate Cancer, words that no man wishes to hear,
At first I was completely lost and frightened without really knowing who to turn to.
These videos are my experience of living with Prostate Cancer. Of undergoing radiotherapy , hormone therapy and all the the strange side effects that go with it and the never ending hope that the incurable becomes curable.
The aim of this channel is hopefully to help people who are coming to terms with their own experiences of cancer.
If you like the videos feel free to subscribe to my channel and come and join me on this journey , where it goes is not written. I promise you it will be honest and as positive as I can make it.
Woody ❤️

And good luck on the scans!!
Great video Woody! I do New Year's resolutions each year and I find them especially helpful since living with stage 4 like yourself. I have resolved to run a triathlon as well as offering myself to several cancer organizations I participate in to be available to mentor newly diagnosed patients. Sharing our story like we do. Gotta stay positive. Can't let it beat us. And need to remember that ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!
Happy new year Woody., thanks again for all your words of wisdom, living the in "the here and now" on a long journey. Scans, and more scans, for me over many years. Anyway mind yourself, god bless, keep laughing, Phil.
Maybe we cannot always choose the music but we can always choose how to dance to it , my aim is to dance with a smile no matter what the tune , my new mantra for 2025 , cheers Woody, happy new year. Phil
Hi Woody Happy new year to you. Being a Christian has helped me immensely. Having the hope of eternal life through Jesus Christ my Lord. He is the strength of my life. Havnt felt overwhelmed at any time during my stage 4 journey. Have exercised daily, eaten healthily, served my community, enjoyed my family. Taken up lawn bowls, meeting people. I plan on continuing this into this year. Cheers. Ian
Woody, in response to your question, I am not going to make any change in my motivations. I’m highly motivated because my purpose guides my cancer existence. Cancer controls my life,but my personal purpose manages it. For right now, no change needed. Blessings Woody.
Happy new year Woody! I appreciate your collective approach to dealing with prostate cancer. I hope to be more in the moment, and cutting myself some slack when things go pear shaped. It all passes like you said, the river keeps moving, trying to fight it or swim upstream doesn't cut in in our situation. Will also try to be more open minded to new situations. Again, appreciate you taking the time to connect us all. Regards Carl.
Happy new year Woody,I’ve been following your cancer journey,I too have stage 4 prostate cancer,my PSA levels have been rising over last few months so they have referred me for a ct scan and a whole body bone scan next week,good luck with your scans…Kevin
Happy New Year Woody🎉. I am glad your PSA result was a reduction. I will be positive with my partner and do more exercise.
As of the week of Christmas, received my pathology back, not good Gleason 10 and aggressive PC detected on all cores so throughout the whole gland. Waiting for the PMSA as there is some flares on my Iliac bone, but lymphs and bowel area outside of the prostate appear clear. So not sure if it has mets yet, but got a scary fight in front of me. So to your question what am I going to do this year. I am going to fight! Everything the medical blokes advise plus increase in physical activity (as much as I can knowing that is going to be a battle as well once treatment starts), radically modify my diet, and as you have been a great proponent of walk! Thanks Woody for being a great inspiration, god bless.
Cheers Woody, saw my consultant today she said psa was almost undetectable, so I'm really happy with that
Great to hear that Christmas gift. Any drop in PSA is better than any gift at this stage of our life of living with Stage Four Prostate cancer. Keep up the good fight. God is with us. St. Paul's teaching of the Gospel reckons that you have Faith in the Lord but also do some work of your own. And that's why we must stick to our treatment plan. Take the medication and stay positive.
@filemonilauilefue4493 Thank you 🙏❤️
Good to hear about your progress on this incurable disease. The fact that you can still do these videos, is encouraging for me with my own videos to inform my families and friends on my own condition with my Advanced Stage Four Metastatic Prostate Cancer. I'm into my sixth month of hormone therapy....erleada and lupron. My PSA has gone down to .14 and hope to keep going down and not upward. Sending love to you and your family. I love this community. I have my own RUclips channel and put a lot of videos there about my family activities who are my main Support Team. Happy New Year.
@filemonilauilefue4493 I've subscribed to your channel and looking forward to hearing about your own journey. It's all about inspiring each other 🙏❤️
@@Livingwith-prostatecancer Thank you for your response. I will continue to update my own status in due time, but it's good to hear from members of our community for moral support.
Happy, loving and above all Healthy 2025!✌🏽🫶🏽

Happy new year Woody. You are goodness' and Inspiration personified. 👍👍🙂🙂
Good news going into the new year
Happy new year 😊
You should look up Guy Tennenbaum. A dramatic but documented case study. He was lost cause, stage 4 prostate cancer. Told to get his affairs in order, nothing to be done. Now he is No Evidence of Disease (NED) largely through his own initiatives with metabolic methods. Easy to find online. Metabolic for cancer is now getting very serious study from mainstream cancer researchers. Also, it can work as a complete COMPLIMENT, not a replacement for standard of care treatment.
@douglascutler1037 Thank you very much I will definitely look this up. 🙏❤️
@@Livingwith-prostatecancer That's great. If you are interested, a leading advocate for metabolic therapy is Dr. Thomas Seyfried, veteran Professor of Biology at Boston College. There are tons of RUclipss featuring him. He's a lead cancer researcher from mainstream academia but many regular MDs and oncologists are now taking a keen interest in the metabolic approach.
Nothing beats good news during the holidays! And also, I really resonate with what you say about staying in the present moment and only turning to the past to revisit positive memories. It feels especially relevant to me right now as well , great advice. The present holds so much peace and tranquility, and power.
God bless great news merry Christmas
Hi Woody, Thank you for contributing your experiences. I also have prostate cancer and like you have received 4 injections of hormone therapy. I have experienced significant side effects including mood swings ( sometimes anger) and depression. I have been given a book which is absolutely the best and everyone on HT should read and also their loved ones.The book is "Androgen Deprivation Therapy" , An Essential Guide for Prostate Cancer Patients and their Loved Ones. I was given mine by Prostate Cancer UK but I have also bought a copy through Amazon...Price about L18 (RRP L40). I strongly recommend it to anyone on ADT.
Great news Woody. Radiation works wonders, doesn't it? Fear? I understand, as we live blood test to blood test, don't we? That blood test you got means you have just added months of good health to your life. Hope your testosterone is going up as well. Once you hit the low end of normal male testosterone, you will feel like you are 40 years old again and your attitude will strengthen. God Bless You Woody. Rob in Phoenix.
@robertrosanelli444 Thank you Rob and the same to you my friend ❤️🙏
Great news woody, happy festivities and happy new year 2025

@billyjohnson9166 Thanks Billy, you too ❤️🙏
So pleased you have received good news for Christmas Woody. My husband also has advanced prostate cancer - his last PSA was stable, the best Christmas present we could have received. You have uttered such wise words Woody about trying to live in the present, this being the time to give and receive love and make beautiful memories. I shall try and hold onto them, both today, and in the months ahead. I hope you and your family have a really good Christmas and wish you the very best for 2025.
@Susanna58 Thank you Susan and I wish you and your husband the same , I've already made a stack of beautiful memories this Christmas to recall in the not so good moments that we all have 🙏❤️
Merry Christmas 🎁 bee 🐝 good to your self ❤
@Susan-lh1fg Will try 🙏❤️
Great news Woody PSA, thanks for the wise words we lucky to have you on our side Merry Christmas. Phil
@n.c.b.8832 Thank you Phil Merry Christmas 🙏❤️
Merry Christmas and good health to you and all who are suffering from this nasty disease.
@jys160 My thoughts too 🙏❤️
I’m Happy that your PSA dropped….as I go through my journey, my fears have matured as time passes. As a cancer patient, fear is associated with death and loss of control of owns life. I talk about my fears, that is how I manage my fear. Happy holidays Woody😊😊😊
@enniscollado202 Ennis we all have our own coping strategies that we develop dealing with cancers. I know I'm going to die but then so is every single person on the planet at some point. I try not to live life fearing death my worst fear is leaving the people I love behind . I'm convinced though to die is to start a new journey one I'm not afraid of and that gives me strength. I may talk about it some time. Take care my friend 🙏❤️
@@Livingwith-prostatecancer blessings
Merry Christmas Woody like you I have also had good news on my PSA.
@mikerose6835 Excellent news Mike I'm pleased for you man 🙏❤️
Glad to hear your good news Woody. And your words of wisdom regarding the worries that we all have when we are on this cancer journey. On going scans, psa up and down when on /off the hormone treatment for years. Happy Christmas, all the best for the new year, keep laughing,god bless Phil.
@phillyons2052 Thanks Phill 🙏❤️
Congrats mate, take it strong into the new year! So many people are supporting you!!
@rockateer2162 That's kind to say 🙏❤️
Merry Christmas Woody! Well said. We can only live in the present. No one knows what the future holds. We must live our lives and make decisions that are positive!
@ThomasMcElroy-w5v Thank you 🙏❤️
Merry Christmas friend. Those are some great words that you spoke today. The moment like you say, and to just add another phrase, the big picture, sums it up nicely. Take care, enjoy the kids. Peace. Regards Carl
