Ed joined IBM in 1970 and…

Unfortunately I was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer in February and started hormone treatment back on 6th March

My doctors have also recommended chemotherapy treatment be done at the same time.

When the cancer metastasizes there's some evidence that both treatments done together may help longer term survival.

The first chemotherapy treatment was on 13th April (unlucky for some) and the plan is to continue that for the next four or five months.

Obviously I will do my very best in the coming months.
