Helping Friend With Prostate Cancer

We stayed in my sister's house during our holiday vacation in the Philippines. Their house is spacious and they have a spare bedroom for us. Aside from that, they are longing to see for my daughter again, and looking forward to hold and kiss her. We decided to stay at their place  because it is relaxing, quite and cool breeze too. We set plans to visit few places nearby but due to my daughter's condition we decided to cancelled it. She had a low grade fever and nasal congestion reason enough to made me worried in going anywhere. We spent most of the time at the house. 

One day, my sister received a call from their friends who are also residing in the same town and asking if it is okay to visit and informing them that he had a prostate cancer. (They met this couple years before my sister relocated to the US). Both my sister and my brother in law wants to hear more about the story and they invited them to come over in that same day.

When they arrived my sister felt sadness and shocked with what she saw. She told me the man change a lot, skinny and looks weak. We let them talked, they  asked if my sister could recommend someone to take care of their house while they're gone to the US to continue his treatment and to find a specialist at the same time. After that I never heard anything about the couple probably they're in the US already.

 I am thinking if they know about  HIFU a procedure that uses ultrasound wave energy to destroy the affected areas of the patient's prostate. Perhaps I will  call my sister  on her days off I wanna know how's the couple doing and let them know about HIFU website. It is very informative and might be the answer in finding cure for prostate cancer. I hope I can help them in my own little way.
