      My Dad has been recently diagnosed with metastatic prostatic adenocarcinoma. I know this is off topic, I am a stage IV 4 melanoma survivor. I'm just worried he Is not in the right place being cared for by specialists in advanced prostate cancer. Any words of advice out there for a very concerned daughter?

          I'm not sure how close it'd be for you, but there's always M.D.Anderson Cancer Center in Houston. My mom goes there for her non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and they've been helpful, kind, and currently have her cancer-free following a stem cell transplant.

          Good luck to your father and you and your family.

              My husband has stage 4 melanoma and we have been going to MDA in Houston.  Very happy with the doctors and all the employees.
