Shocking surprise Day 11, 9/17/2011

Today was the day that I was shocked to hear that my grandfather Robert Jackson has prostate cancer. We have no idea how bad it is right now but we hope and pray that he will be ok. So to make him feel better we had a little gathering at my NaNa's house.
"About 1 man in 6 will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during his lifetime. More than 2 million men in the United States who have been diagnosed with prostate cancer at some point are still alive today.
Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in American men, behind only lung cancer. About 1 man in 36 will die of prostate cancer."
