Robbie’s Story

Site created on May 17, 2021

Welcome to my ꧁ⓇⓂⒽ꧂ Caring❤️Bridge website. This website is  to keep family and friends updated on my Prostate Cancer in one place. I have decided to use this platform to communicate about my cancer rather than Facebook for the added privacy and control… I appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement. So many people have asked me how i am doing and questioned if there were anything they could do to help me out… I can tell you what i need the most is a ton of positivity and encouragement… I am already feeling the outrageous cost of cancer and while i do have Medicare i still need to come up with 20% of the cost of everything i have done from medications to radiation treatments, biopsies and other services (The cost for Lupron Depot intramuscular kit (7.5 mg/month) is around $1,855, my 20% is $371 per month alone)… For that reason i will be putting together a GoFundMe campaign for those who would like to help in that way accessable the tab 'Ways to Help' above… Thank you for visiting 😀.

REMARKABLE NEWS

Journal entry by Robert Hale —

REMARKABLE NEWS

A PSA above 0.1ng/mL means a trace of cancer.

On 12/15/2020 my PSA was 9.4
On 01/25/2021 my PSA was 11.4

On 09/20/2021 my PSA as 0.1ng/mL

(A value of 0.1ng/mL would be considered essentially zero. PSA above 0.1 is usually an indication of cancer recurrence, and treatments for recurrence should begin before the PSA reaches 1.0ng/mL.)
