So the Broncos are Superbowl #50 champs.  This month is Valentines, or as I like to call it " I Love You Day" and also cancer awareness month.  Male breast cancer is a cancer not to many people think about, but it happens.  It's said that over 2,200 men are diagnosed with breast cancer every year and that over 450 men die from it per year.  Most people have always thought breast cancer to be a women's cancer and like most men we're too stubborn to go see a doctor, by the time we do it's too late and the cancer has spread.  For most men with breast cancer, when caught in the early stages, survival rate is around 90%.  Breast cancer is rare among men but it does happen. So, what do you do to become that 90% if diagnosed with breast cancer? What are the emotions you go through as a man having a so called "women's disease"?  On today's show of Laughing with Cancer we have one of the worlds youngest male breast cancer survivors.  At age 24 he was diagnosed with breast cancer and from that point on his journey began as an advocate for men with breast cancer.  He's the founder of the MBCC (Male Breast Cancer Coalition) and the Bret Miller 1T foundation "saving second base one boob at a time".  Here to talk about his foundation and bring awareness to male breast cancer is Bret Miller.

    Show #014   "PTSD" On this episode of Laughing with Cancer we get a little serious, we talk with my oldest son and part time co-host Erik (Gunner) Baisley and how he deals with PTSD.  From boot camp, to being deployed to Iraq, and how he copes with his PTSD.  He tells us what it was like in boot camp and how they tear you down and in his words "to dirt level" just to build you back up.  He explains how he felt about going to fight for our country and being a solider ever since 9/11.  He explains how a soldier feels when they come home and the mindset you take on from being in combat. From the moment he left to Iraq and we found out he was a rabbit gunner, his mother and I were both worried sick for his life. I cant imagined how he must have felt as he explains, waking up everyday and wondering if  that day would be his last. Working with the Navy Seals and having one particular seal teaching him a lesson about situational awareness by choking him out at random several times throughout the week, until he was always on guard. Like most parents of Soldiers fighting for our country, all we can do is hope and pray, that they come home in one piece.  However, what we dont realize is that even though they may have come home with no visual scars, they come home with mental and emotional scars. PTSD can lead to depression, anxiety, alcoholism, drug abuse and even thoughts of suicide. With the help from their family, other loved ones and even the VA, our soldiers can work through their PTSD, one step at a time. I would like to thank my son Erik and all the other young men who fought and died for our country. I'm very proud of you and i will always be there for you, love you bud.
