My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Prostate cancer

This year 3% of the males diagnosed with prostate cancer will be under the age of 49. 33% will be 50-64 years and 67% will be over the age of 65.

This year I lost a family member to cancer which started as prostate cancer, developed into bone cancer and onwards. He never got to meet my son.
Knowing what I now know about this terrible disease, I hope reading this may spark your interest to ask the question to these men in your lives or ask yourself: What time would I or you lose by getting a blood test? Maybe an hour.

If your father or brother have ever been diagnosed with prostate cancer, you have twice the average risk of developing the disease.

If you have two or more close male relatives who have been diagnosed, your lifetime risk of developing prostate cancer increases five-fold.

Your risk also increases if you have a strong family history of breast or ovarian cancer, especially if a BRCA1 or 2 gene mutation was involved.

This Movember I will be raising awareness of the PSA blood test which can detect prostate cancer early.
