Since it was in the early stage the prognosis was that the odds were in his favor. Both his urologist and oncologist recommended a course of action and Arthur immediately chose to have radioactive seeds implanted as they suggested.
For the past 5 years his PSA count has been ZERO. His final blood test was taken and he has now become an "official" survivor.
