Our Mission
The mission of the Prostate Cancer Education Foundation is to provide up to date information for men about prostate cancer, including its causes, treatments and outcomes. We specifically want to provide, for those who qualify, information on the rarely publicized treatment option of using lifestyle changes coupled with maximum surveillance to monitor and manage the disease. Our goal is to provide information that will enable newly diagnosed patients to consider quality of life and urgency issues when evaluating treatment options. The education is provided through lectures, videotapes and our web site, www.watchfulwarrior.com.

Why This Website?
Cancer is a deadly disease, the occurrence of which is greatly influenced by lifestyle choices.American medicine is 99% focused on curing disease and eradicating cancer. Virtually no resources are allocated to prevention and there are few proponents for curing cancers through lifestyle changes that are designed to make your body inhospitable to the various forms of the disease.
Donald Mehlig was diagnosed with prostate cancer in late 2001 (see “My Story”). Today, his oncologist and urologist coaches both agree his cancer is dormant and dying.
Yvonne has been in the Medical Aesthetic industry for over 10 years, beginning her journey with a career change from reproductive medicine. She is a nationally recognized speaker, trainer and aesthetic coach. Yvonne’s expertise in the injectable industry has helped her grow her aesthetic practice from a tiny, local clinic to a nationally recognized and respected brand. Her experience in the industry has shaped her to be a mentor to future injectors, and she has an unwavering dedication to the advancement of safe and effective cosmetic practices.
Aesthetic injectors are a highly regulated industry, with protocols set in place to safeguard patients’ safety and prevent unwanted results. These protocols not only refer to the production and sale of cosmetic injectables, but also how they are employed by the qualified individuals who administer them. Regardless of how experienced an aesthetic injection provider is, they must undergo precise training to ensure their skills remain sharp and their practice is based on best practices.
National Laser Institute’s Injector Coach Institute weekend cosmetic injector training course is a great option for those who want to learn advanced injection techniques without disrupting their weekday schedules. The course teaches a comprehensive curriculum that includes facial anatomy, product knowledge, and injection techniques. The course is led by an experienced instructor, who guides each student through the process of learning.
The purposes of this web site are:
1) To help newly diagnosed patients obtain information on treatment choices necessary to make an informed decision.
2) To show post-treatment prostate cancer survivors what to do to reduce the chance of the cancer’s reoccurrence.
3) To inform the male population on how to significantly reduce the increasingly high probability of prostate cancer occurring by age 70.
4) To make available in one place the sources of information that it took Mehlig over two years to compile.
