This is the best news ever!! We are so happy for Tommy and Lisa.

Please guys go and get a prostate exam and get your PSA (prostate-specific antigen) levels checked!

Early detection is very important!!

That is awesome news! Congratulations to Buckley and his people xoxo. And gosh that last bit seems like a good tip about getting an exam, let’s all follow through on that. C’mon don’t fret. If your brownzone must be breached, it might as well be a professional finger this time.
