Tyler stated that doctors initially were optimistic after Tyler was diagnosed. But then, the cancer spread to other parts his body, rendering his lower body paralyzed. “There are other options available to men if they catch it before me,” Tyler told Today. “Next time you go in for just a basic exam or your yearly checkup, please ask your doctor for a PSA test.
