Today was an important day in regards to my health situation, and I want to hereby clarify the situation, as I know many of you are concerned about it.

Biopsies and a PET Scan performed around March 5th showed clearly that there was some cancer in my prostate. Before a decision was made on a longer term course of action against it, I was given a special anti-cancer injection, the effect of which lasts 3 months, to stop the cancer growing until it was decided what to do. Such an injection usually does not eliminate cancer, but slows or stops its growth.

On April 28th I had an MRI scan done of that area, and the results showed something quite extraordinary. The cancer had completely disappeared.

Today, the 30th, I visited our oncology specialist (a doctor who specializes in cancer) and we discussed the situation. He feels it is very likely that the cancer is still there, but in a microscopic form, and we have to wait for some time to check again.

So in the first week of August we will have another MRI done, and we will see what that reveals. In the meantime I will have another injection around June 6th (3 months after the first one).

If the MRI in August reveals that the cancer has reappeared, I will probably have radiation treatment for some weeks. If the MRI shows it has not reappeared, then we will wait for some time for further checks.

So that is the situation. In certain respects it is encouraging, of course, but at the same time the situation is still of concern, so please keep praying to Srimati Radharani and Lord Krishna to help.

Hoping this meets you well.

Your ever well-wisher,

Bhakti Caitanya Swami
