Just wanted to mention here as I could not reply to the fundraiser topic. That Dr. Shoskes or any researcher as a matter of fact from Cleveland clinic urology dept, can take their study they need funding for to the NIH and apply for grant funding. You can look at who gets what funding for studies on the NIH website. Lots of institutions/universities/hospitals receive grants and funding. While it is great to personally donate to the efforts, I believe there is money there.. Researchers who have valid studies can apply and receive government funding. Cleveland clinic should very easily be able to get $25k in funding. Or even $250k+ with a valid study plan.
It is a shame this is such a taboo problem to have. Not many of us want to stand on a soap box and scream in the streets to bring attention to their prostate/pelvic floor problem. But I feel we really do need more attention brought to this problem to get more funding/people support etc into finding the cure.
