What do Arnold Palmer, Colin Powell and James Bond have in common?

All, along with a host of other famous people, have been diagnosed with prostate cancer at some point in their lives. (Ok – so it was Roger Moore, not actually James Bond.) Prostate cancer is the second most common form of cancer that affects men, and more than 30,000 die of the disease each year.

CoxHealth will hold a free informational program with urologists Howard Follis and Andrew Schultz called “Life After Prostate Cancer” 5:30 – 6:30 p.m., Thursday, Sept. 30. Patients dealing with prostate cancer can learn about coping with the side effects of treatment.

A light dinner will be served. The program will be held in the Dogwood Room on the fourth floor of Hulston Cancer Center, 3850 S. National. This is a free program, but advance registration by Sept. 27 is required. Call 269-5224 for more information.
