Our campaign aims to be blunt about
some of our positions. We believe that if
a doctor is not following the American
Urological Association recommendations
about the PSA test, then he or she might
be just going through the motions like a
puppet. There is controversy in the
healthcare industry about the PSA test
(search Newsweek.com for "Prostate
Cancer's Difficult Choices" to learn
more). Our view for you and other men? The
controversy should have nothing to do with
what you must do for your own best health:
Get tested!

Garretson's monthly poster is featured daily on our
homepage and at www.pcaw.org
(Prostate Cancer Awareness Week). His book,
Niches of Clarity at Gunflint, is a sardonic
view of the infuriatingly awful healthcare
practices and lazy cavalier behavior by men that
together give us today's prostate cancer
epidemic.
"Instead of adding to the Web's
voluminous text resources, I chose to modernize
pulp fiction magazine covers from the 30's to the
60's. (See www.MansGland.com
)
Why? Because I believe smiling at the absurdity of
the disease is one of many coping and healing paths
to follow," she says.
"My Requests: Women viewers:
Please lead healthy men by the ear to this page and
make them look. Healthy Men: Glance, grimace, get a
PSA. Men with Prostate Cancer: Hey, try laughing in
the face of dread. It helps." Kim can be reached at
